darkdrummer username change + bow drill

[jmatthews]

Just thought I'd announce that I've changed my username from Dark Drummer to J Matthews, but more importantly that I got a bow drill to work for the first time the other day, which was shortly followed by a tremendous hi-five! Fantastic to see the tinder bundle finally burst into flames

Get outside and practice those techniques people!

Congratulations, drumming in the dark seems kinda daft.

And congrats on getting that first fire started by friction. It's a great feeling when you do that. And for some reason, it never seems that difficult ever again after you've gotten over that first hill.

That is a special moment, James.

But the atom of delight never diminishes!
