i do that when i burn a "canadian candle"
(you know, get a big wide log and cut it almost all the way down with a chainsaw)

but with regular logs, i always put jeggs catalogues at the bottom, then some kindling and twigs
ive been doing it like that ever since ive known how to walk...so it may be hard to change that
i mean flames go up, right?
