Fire is magic

Authored by: rcsteiner on Tuesday, May 15 2012 @ 12:56 AM EDT

Can I also have a string, and can I choose the type of wood involved?

Can one of the "sticks" be a match? :-)

Can make fire by rubbing sticks together.
Not easy to do.
Takes time.
Wonder how they invented it.
And, if someone patented it at the time?
Would society have benefited with it patented.
Maybe it was a "trade secret" and the knowledge was passed
on in the same family for years (maybe a thousand years or
more). The same family did not have to work, hunt, they just
started the fire?

Google rub two sticks together to make fire (videos too).
