Thanks for every ones insight.
The history of this forum has been burning of anything, including insulated wire, is very much condemed. I recall 10+ years ago a salvageyard in a small city near by would burn wire at the yard. Today they would be arrested for it.
I realise you asked a question and was not recommending someone burn insulated wire. Mike
