The message DGxOe.10628$g47.7290@trnddc07
from "Travis" contains these words:

Even though I Googled for it I can't find how a paraffin
refrigerator works. Anyone?


Same as a gas one.


Since paraffin is a soild (isn't it) and gas is a gas I don't get it.


'Paraffin' is a group of hydrocabons which includes solids through to
gases. The paraffin referred to is somewhere in the middle of the group
and is called kerosene in Transpondia.
