Have you ever camped outside... in the city?

My girlfriend wants me to accompany her on an all-night marathon camp out in the middle of winter in downtown Toronto to be first in line to get the VIP Academy Award No Country For Old Men press junket tickets / all access passes to a radio station promoted MTV / Liberty Grand Hollywood celebrity filled schmoozefest.

She has our Coleman stove, our insulated tent and two sleeping bags by the door...

I don't want anything to do with it - but I can't have her outside all alone at night. She is young - I think she hopes to have an amazing evening on Feb 24th and is prepared to make me suffer tonight!

I can dig that. Have you guys ever used a candle as heat? I heard you could keep at tent at 50 in pretty cold weather but I don't know how it was done. Put in a coffee can or something I don't remember. Ever heard?

The funny part of the story is, everyone of us WOULD end up staying out there. You can't let your girl stay out there alone. Interesting how none of us replied to this thread until SPOON RACER did yesterday.

A night in a tent with a young woman? sounds like a no brainer to me.
