Zog make fire... ooohh! I dunno why, but that really made me crack up.

Giga, have you read Harry Harrison's 'DeathWorld' series? You really should. I think you'd appreciate Book II where he ends up on a backwards planet where the natives dig for roots & the leaders jealously guard their 'magic' technology. The hero steadily works his way up the grunt ladder by doing things like making a Leyden jar and they are, well, blown away.

Second thoughts can generally be amended with judicious action; injudicious actions can seldom be recovered with second thoughts.
