For the footnote, how about we simplify by being more prescriptive: "Unless you already possess an alternative means of relighting the torch later (e.g. another Tinderbox or a Kalte Firesphere), record this Tinderbox on your Action Chart as a Backpack Item. It is not necessary to record the one lit torch on your Action Chart." -- Jon ~~~~~~ Manage your subscription at //www.freelists.org/list/projectaon
