just found another expression: table lantern
I admit I had transient thoughts about a “hurricane light” or “table lantern”, designed to not blow out in the wind by having a glass cylinder or globe to shield the paragon oil fed wick burning and giving us light, in the good old days of camping!
But then I used Google and felt crushed for mi obvious ignorance!
I was feeling so “out of it” and “unhip” as I knew nothing of the massive following of the online game world of windlight!
I also discovered my further ignorance of matters an educated person really should be aware of, in basic facts about how things work in the modern world in particular, in what lighthouses can do in transmitting actual wind speeds in their flashing. I had previously thought that lighthouses are solely used as markers for naivigation!
