AH? we have run into the "wESTERN wAY" again...to solve the problem when it is a problem. Hasn't the guy that was said to have started the Hamm Lake fire been in Court and Sentenced. Fires are  a part of the natural system, we as humans have just turned it into something terrible...in our super intelligent heads. Of course the burning homes in the land of fruits and nutts assisted with this evolution. Sure fires are expensive if one puts them out, builds homes in ecosysytems that are fire driven, and for some I suppose that from an aethetic perspective they have a hard time with the carbon issue....But who of us even thinks about this when jumping in the car, bus, train ,plane, or whatever? I dont believe you B....what is the rub again anyway? A big campfire? Come on  :-? Pissed off at the forest service because you feel like they yanked your chain...did not do what U thought they should have done? Not being taken seriously? What is the issue? I am not trying to be an ass here....just curious...What is the real issue?
