I noticed at the end of the credits for Hellboy II a disclaimer stating that the portrayal of smoking is for artistic purposes only, and is not to be taken as an endorsement. Interesting.

Liquid smoke is weird stuff. It's like 3 days of (car) camping concentrated in a little bottle! I had no idea the name was so literal. It's actually condensed smoke! I had always assumed it was some cheesy synthetic flavoring.

I'm staying up tonight to start another Ondarra story. I've been meaning to for a few weeks, but a plot only solidified this morning. Major historical inspirations for this one: Charles Babbage, The Mechanical Turk, and maybe a bit of John Harrison.
