Good job trying.
Fire making is a lost art / skill.
After spending my entire youth as a "pyro" I am glad that I have these skills today. I'd like to think that my attraction to fire was my ancestors working through me to keep a survival skill alive.

I used to attend some Native American sweat lodges, the medicine man who is Cree would start a blazing fire in just seconds with one match. He used to say the wind gods would help him out. I always thought that he and his wisdom wer so cool.
