Frosty,
Dang, that was a good one! I never heard of such a thing, but it sounds
perfectly logical to me; can hardly wait to find an excuse to try it out!

Sure.

Pull the wire out of your mig gun and grind a tungsten 
tig tip to fit in the mig's contact tip. You now have a 
scratch start tig gun.

Use argon.
