calmly ranted:

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that wind -was- a problem during my
experiments.

As for ignition, I was planning to fasten a peizo sparker to the end
of a rod. I wouldn't leave the flame on all the time, only during
parties and whenever I was going to be hanging out in the area, so
thrmocouples and auto-lighting and such wouldn't be an issue.

What's that I hear? "Hey, Y'all! WATCH THIS!"
