<pre>The other thing about using olive oil for lamps is that older, even slightly
rancid oil is better than the very fresh product. My friend Darell Corti of
Sacramento, a truly knowledgeable man about everything to do with the olive
and its oil, told me that the remaining water in newly pressed oil slows
combustion.
