		<description><![CDATA[Just tried this - really neat!  Although, I did find a different way to hold the split match that was easier for me than the two ways mentioned -  I held the match body with my index tip and the inside of my thumb joint, using my thumb tip to apply the necessary pressure to strike it.  This position forces the match cardboard to curve while striking, but then curve away from your thumb as soon as it leaves the striker, thus not burning you.  
Just a way that I found easier.  Thanks for sharing!]]></description>
