You need the "hot knife" from HHGTTG! (Now *that* was cool!)

Hot knife? In which episode/book?


Does anyone know how to remove smoke stains from glass? I've
tried any number of strong organic solvents (including MEK), and
nothing -- not even citrus solvent -- seems to dissolve it very well.

Try vinegar, water and copious amounts of elbow grease?

Don't have any vinegar, but I might try a bit of Sno Bol -- it's mostly HCl.
