Lol sure if you use a fuckload of gasoline in a poorly ventilated setting. You've gotta be pretty dumb to bask in fumes like that. Pour out like half an ounce onto a paper towel, outdoors? Don't let it sit. Put the can far away. Use a long grill lighter... You'll be fine. The trick to using it as a firestarter is, indeed, that it's the fumes that burn - it needs a wick to work best, and that assembly goes 6-12" under the firewood...

If you could get the federal government to acknowledge that phones are critical communications infrastructure (seems pretty agreed upon) and that repeatedly triggering false alarms is a classic tactic to desensitize users to alarms... Deliberately attacking critical infrastructure is terrorism. I figure by the second or third Predator strike against a call center, the problem will solve itself.

Comment treat it as terrorism (Score 1) 55

The spam calling is an attack against critical communications infrastructure. The intent is to create a 'boy who cried wolf' scenario, reducing the effectiveness of our communication networks. We need intelligence agencies investigating these callers. Those associated with the operation federally jailed for terrorism. Conventional military strikes against call centers.
