Theres an old folkstory from I believe Turkey ( Burak!) The men had gathered together over coffee and in conversation one boastedd he could stand outside all night in the winter cold. His friends challenged him to the bet, the man to provide a banquet if he failed. So that very day he walked out at sunset to the barren hillside overlooking the village in only his thin work clothes. It became bitterly cold and he soon felt colder than at anytime in his life. Dark shadows of wolves mixed with the eary sounds of the wind. He was about to give in and race to home and bed when he spotted the tiny light of a candle far below in a window. He stared at the far away candle and found courage. With prayers to Allah he watched the candle burn until the first rays of sunlight brought warmth and his approaching friends to see if he had survived. They were naturally shocked and looked about for signs of a campfire or secreted rugs. Finding nothing they questioned him at length. He finally told of the distant candle in the window. AHAH! that candle, however far gave off heat. You lose the bet and we dine at your home tonight. That evening the men assembled and waited, and waited until 4 hours passed. Finally in anger they burst into the kitchen. There was the man, true to his promise cooking a dinner in a huge copper pot- over a single candle. <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Please refer to my toilet paper, coffeecan and alcohol car heater in an earlier thread. <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
