[MR] Re: mundane tents and flames

[Michael & Eileen Michaels]

Almost still on topic...

I have a HUGE mundane tent it is 16'x11' and  at least 8' tall, and has four
room dividers in it. And this past fall. We had a citronella bucket candle
burning in it overnight while we were asleep. (before you say DUH) I t was
on a table in the center of the HUGE tent, so unless the whole tent
collapsed (and I think we would notice that) there was virtually no risk of
the candle burning anything. But in the morning when we woke up there was
black soot on the bottom of our noses, and I realized what we were breathing
in all night. SO don't burn citronella inside your tent, no matter how big
the misquitos are!
