does anyone have any solid info about what's going on with oil and a hot knife or nail/skillet setup and water pipe, vis a vis combustion or vaporization? i've got in a debate with a friend about this... he suggests that because there is no flame directly applied to the material, it's vaporization; I insist that it must be combustion if the platform is red hot, and even if it's cooled off a bit it is probably over the combustion threshold, so what gets produced is smoke not vapor. i am pretty sure that i am right, but i'm curious whether this has been studied at all.
