Camping Stove Design Part I: Vertical Wick to Extend Power Range
Vertical placement of wick material in camp stoves of height to diameter ratios greater than 1/4 can substantially increase power over that of stoves that lay wick or simple alcohol fuel in the bottom of the container. This video contains material that is sort of an inside joke between some camp stove designer enthusiast youtubers. We are all looking for that ultimate stove known as the ultralight backpacing camping stove “holy grail.” I do a little affectionately intended jesting with Joshua (aka terrafirma369), placing him in the role as “Grasshopper” — Caine played by David Carradine in the 1970’s TV series “Kung Fu” (Joshua is a martial arts enthusiast in real life), and myself as his Master Teacher, Kahn. You see, Joshua had crafted the very stove I had envisioned to make several months before I even conceived of it. (A picture of it is presented in this video. He did such a nice job of it, producing a well tuned stove with an efficient blue flame. Total artistic genius–there was no point for me to reproduce what he had already perfected. Now the pebble is in my hand (the vertical wick power concept), lol, and let’s see if he can snatch it out so as to liberate himself from the subjective role as my student! : )

Does straightening your spine really increase height?
I read somewhere that if you do spine,lower back,back, etc stretches/exercises, it would increase your height. Does it really increase your height or does it just make you more flexible?
