Since I once owned an MT19 equipped with a functional Hunter heater and the car was torched by another motorcar that impaled my car's gas tank which subsequently "lit off", I guess I wasn't in the mood for any "fire humor". Without the usual <G> or :-) or 8-), I didn't take the original comment as humorous. Forgive me if I didn't take it that way.

While my comment was intended as humor, it is based on reality. Just remember
(if you are old enough) the GM Corvair.
The originals had a gas heater of thr same design as the Hunter. these cars were
notorious for going on fire due to the heater. I admit it was usually cause it
got too hot, but the also misfired and started a fire.
It was intended as humorous fact.
