[quote=Toten Kopf;528082]We have plenty here. Just about every food store carries them (and they have the big white tips).

However, I prefer the magnesium block with the striker bar for starting a fire. ...quote]

Yeah I like those too. I like to have at least a few different ways to start a fire in my kit. The magnesium block, some charcloth, waterproof matches, and a bic. Even had a small magnifying glass in there. All that fits in a tin that I got a wallet in for Christmas.
Hopefully out of that I should be able to get a flame.
The one thing that I still want to try is one of those fire pistons.
