We are doing a project in Biology.  We are in the middle of a science lab.  We 
are burning 
objects to find the calorie count.  We were asked to find where the calories 
are stored in a candle.  
Our teacher Mr. Logan, said the best place to look was on the net.  So, if you 
could ever so kindly 
answer our question, we would greatly appreciate it.
