Agreed. Took me 10 minutes to light a coleman last weekend.
I use the camp lighters anymore, matches are not in my bag of tricks anymore.
Camp lighters are nice, you can reach right down in there, and hold the flame steady.

Brought out the 220F's to our winter campout this weekend; worked perfectly for 6 hrs in 10F weather. I used toe warmers for the first time this year. Just like the chemical hand warmers, but smaller for your boots. I found I couldn't walk well with those in the boots, but they worked great on the socks in my sleeping bag (toes were numb most of the evening). In fact too well; they woke me up at 2am with burning feet! But then I had to pee, so needed re-warming after a brisk walk in the woods.
We attended a local Okpik training; learned a lot and had fun with the scouts.

Been cold and wet here in SoCal...I know nothing like back east has been having. Not too much Coleman use here 99% of it's packed away...was using that 502 you gave me Sean for a little over a month as I was wrapping up my move and a short transition into the van....even ran my 3 burner for a few weeks. Both stoves are back in semi retirement but ready to go when needed.
