>>I was in the pub last night, and a guy asked me for a light for his
>>cigarette. I suddenly realised that there was a demand here and money to
>>be
>>made, and so I agreed to light his cigarette for 10 pence, but I didn't
>>actually give him a light, I sold him a license to burn his cigarette. My
>>fire-license restricted him from giving the light to anybody else, after
>>all, that fire was my property. He was drunk, and dismissing me as a
>>loony,
>>but accepted my fire (and by implication the licence which governed its
>>use) anyway. Of course in a matter of minutes I noticed a friend of his
>>asking him for a light and to my outrage he gave his cigarette to his
>>friend and pirated my fire! I was furious, I started to make my way over
>>to
>>that side of the bar but to my added horror his friend then started to
>>light other people's cigarettes left, right, and centre! Before long that
>>whole side of the bar was enjoying MY fire without paying me anything.
>>Enraged I went from person to person grabbing their cigarettes from their
>>hands, throwing them to the ground, and stamping on them.
>>
>>Strangely the door staff exhibited no respect for my property rights as
>>they threw me out the door.
