Again, if you want to argue about when to make a fire or not you guys can start a new thread instead of getting this one off topic.
You keep quoting me. I'm not arguing about anything.

Hmm. Never heard of one of those…..Started one with a propane cig lighter. Worked great. I always carry one now.
The problem I have with the Bic style lighters is, if my Thum get wet it will also get the flint wet and no spark to light the gas. I now use a cigar lighter that does not use flint.BIC style lighters don't always work
Almost never work when it's really cold.
Keeping at least one or two mt house and a few hot drink mix’s in emergency kit may be a good idea to get that core up.I rarely carry a stove anymore. From a survival standpoint I may need to reconsider this if I am hunting where rain is likely and the temp could drop unexpectedly. Being able to eat/drink something warm is good advice. Could also boil water to fill a bottle and throw it in the sleeping bag.
So true on getting a Bic wet. One of the reasons to carry a spare, in a separate Ziplock.The problem I have with the Bic style lighters is, if my Thum get wet it will also get the flint wet and no spark to light the gas. I now use a cigar lighter that does not use flint.
