Lifehacker.com has a great article on how to make a proper, effective fire in the wild, outdoors and indoors. If you're experienced in outdoor survival or living, this might look very basic to you. But there is a good reason for everyone to know them. You will make a fire more quickly and effective, and, much important, safe.
