Use Scotch. The single malts burn quite well, and if you don't need to cook,
you can drink the stuff! Cognac also burns well.


Moonshine straight from the still, is 80 to 90 percent ethanol. And
you can dilute it and drink it. Much better fuel than scotch which is
often only 35% alcohol. I as usual I deny everything.

Scotch these days is 80 proof (40%), as are most spirits such as gin and
vodka. Used to be 86.8 standard and 90 to 100 for gin. Another way to cheat
the consumer.


The liquor store (round here anyway) sells the student's favorite
inadvertent suicide tipple. It's called Everclear. It's 190 degrees
proof (95% alcohol.) They just don't get why alcohol could be lethal,
in less than a bottle. So some bite the dust, every year.
