Let the OC'ing begin!
We did a demonstration of this in AP Chemistry...we didn't strip away the wood on the pencil though. We ran the current through and the wood burst into flames, leaving the lead glowing bright orange/red.

For those of you about to post:
craig ... ROFLMAO!!! time to go find a pencil ... I got 4 1.5 D type batteries in series (batt holder) will that work?
I dunno if D's will work but 9v in series are realy fun
if you get enough in series it will work, even if you can make up for voltage with amperage you're goo to go
