      If he didn't keep walking around, blocking the other fellow from seeing, it wouldn't be so bad. I would have tripped him after the third time i had to move to see and then tossed his phone in the forge.

    The other problem with coal is that it is not environmentally friendly and renewable. Unlike lump charcoal.

      ahhh, but where does the charcoal come from and how much more of it do you end up using

      Very good debate. Pound for pound your going to spend about the same amount as you will need about 8 times as much charcoal, but you could make your own char. There again how many trees can you cut down in your yard? That means you need to buy firewood (eventually) to convert and there's the work involved in that. My opinion all fuel sources wind up costing about the same. Either in money or time. So I guess it really comes down to personal preference.
