I just refreshed my emergency candle supply.According to my many catalog suppliers,I need a 'rolling blackout'kit for this summer in Southern California.SIGH,now I have to remove the Y2K,Mir Station,earthquake,Fire and O.J. Simpson disaster lables from my emergency pack.Anyway,my 92y/o neighbor taught me a trick.Place your candles in water and add approx.2 teaspoons of salt and soak for two hours.This will extend the burn time.Storing in the freezer until use also gives some additional life.<br><br>
