Why are people thinking that you need to smoke, in order to carry a lighter around?
If you were to apply this logic to everything we have in our pockets you might as well say that there is no point carying around a deck of cards, unless you are looking for a poker game.
Magician's guilt is being bought into play. Many , many people cary around obscure things as a lucky piece.. Tons of people cary a zippo believe it or not.
Time and time again in magic, you have to build logic into why your in possetion of something. The best logic, is in treating that item in as noting special.
You have the lighter on you to light the candle, or to burn the billet, or to light someone elses ciggy... because thats what normal people do.
or you cary a lighter because it was once your grandads, or your uncles, or once used by James Dean, or because you do lighter tricks..( search google there are tons of sites devoted to zippo juggling believe it or not)
bottom line is, if it's not for you.. fine.
But an item like this has more going for it than i think you realise.
and.. its not often i enthuse about something like Im enthusing about this... so that alone should tell you that it has potential.
you're like Yoda.you dont say much, but what you do say is worth listening to....
