Whats all the fuss? We sound like city slickers afraid of a little pooh> "Ewww, there is some unburnt paper in the fire pit".

Real men are quite the opposite........grab a few buffalo chips and get a fire going to heat those beans up.

The solution is simple.......establish a central location at each campsite on a wide flat rock with good exposure to the sun. Instead of having to cut and split wood just grab a dried log.....probably don't even need kindling. We can sell the idea to the masses by claiming it is "green" and environmentally friendly..........("but it looks brown"......."um, no its not, its green because we say it is, don't believe your eyes, ears or what anyone else says, just listen to us"). 

I was looking for the old Cheech and Chong dog turd laugh ("smell, touch, taste > good thing we didn't step in it") and I came across this. Who knew?
