Thanks for the info.  The one thing I hate about the MSR Whisperlite stoves
is the black mess it leaves behind.  I always thought the soot was left because
of the priming.  

By the way, how do you depressurize the fuel bottle after use?  The manual says
to turn the stove upside down and turn on the fuel.  This seems to just spill fuel
everywhere.

Thanks,
