Great post on the topic. As I gaze out the window and see the steady cold drizzle of rain continuing... and recall getting fires going while the rain comes down, how about adding that to the next level of skills? Perhaps not during a deluge, but in these typical fall/spring conditions, sheltering the process of fire starting and eventually the fire becomes an important consideration. These are routine conditions when a fire can make a huge difference.

I have not exactly replicated your experiment, so it was useful to me to read about yours.
