ame, you are a better man than I am. I don't have the patience to wait 40 minutes for water to boil. To me, after 40 minutes, I better have a darn tasty hot meal to go with my hot beverage.

sotto, with your wind screen, how long does it take to get water (amount?) to boil? I tried the foil windscreen before and it didn't work very well for me. You think there is a differrence between the heavy duty versus the regular tin foil?
