I’m with Hypno-Toad. Having read the offending book, your decision to flambe it is a particularly flamboyant form of literary criticism.
However, I don’t think I could ever bring myself to actually burn a book. But that’s just a personal thing.
The bonfire books may kindle in a field are easier to quench than the spark they ignite in the mind.
One hell of a lot of well stated opinions. Personally, though I would have liked to [del]have a debate with someone like lekatt about why no one should ever, ever burn a book.[/del] hear if there is any better method of getting rid of paper, besides fire. Soaking in water would make it too heavy, and it would take room to store the remains, should I put it into a shredder. Does coca-cola work as handy do it yourself acid, to dissolve the book, like it does with pennies?
Look, Scott, you can’t just burn it. There are procedures, you know. First, you have to throw it in the pond. If it floats, it’s a witch, then you can burn it. Or build a boat out of it, I forget which. 
Holy crap, you are brave. Here you are, stating the correct way to [del]test if something is wooden,[/del], [del]dispose of a witch,[/del] dispose of a book, and every villager knows, you are a known book reader!
I knew Tuba should never have taught you how to do strikethrough.
She’s created a monster.
[del]Braaaaaaains, braaaaaaaaains.[/del] Why sir, I do believe I resen that. Besides, she didn’t teach me, I taught her.
