Yes; there are several varieties of the basic formula.

Electricity? Well, I know how to make batteries, too, so I wouldn't have to worry too much about that. They might not be the strongest ones, but they would deliver electricity. [img]graemlins/petard.gif[/img]

Making a fire? Yes, I can do that too, either with primitive tools or, by raiding any hardware/medical supply store, using a magnifying glass and some sunlight. I suppose you could also beat some malleable metal into a parabolic shape and polish it, and then your reflector would double as a cooker, too. [img]graemlins/beigesmilewinkgrin.gif[/img]
