http://www.zombiesurvivalwiki.com/page/LJ126+Practical+Skills+Primer+%233+-+Practical+Uses+for+LiquorI've been sitting on this article lo these past few weeks, hoping that it would be noticed, but I guess I'll have to shamelessly pimp it out for coverage. The article was initially written to highlight some of the beneficial and less obvious uses for hard liquor.
In practice, alcohol is not ideal for the uses listed (as there are better items in all categories) but in a pinch, alcohol can be used to help purify water, clean wounds, treat toothache, disinfect hard surfaces... and totally unlisted in the article, be used as a weaponized incendiary device!
Take a look, let me know what you think. Post any suggestions or left out uses and I'll be sure to add them.

"A good rule of thumb is by going with the proof label. The highest proof is 180 which is 100% or as close as possible. So every 10% is 18 proof 90 proof is 50% alcohol, I believe you need at least 50% for it to ignite so you need something over 108 proof to be 60% alcohol. iffin I member correctly." Oops, two people said what I was going to say. Proof is twice the alcoholic content.
