Tink1717 2 #27 May 6, 2008 In the early years (1920's - 1950's) , we were ignorant of the role of fire in the environment. Because of this, fires were actively suppressed, not only in populated ares, but in the wild as well. This led to the building of a fire load that resulted in more and more catastrophic wild fires. The example that comes to mind is the Yellowstone fire of 1988. This fire was on the order of a 500 year event. Subsequent investigation showed that due to aggressive firefighting operations, the normal role of fire in the wild land was disrupted and allowed the large scale event to happen.Skydivers don't knock on Death's door.

Tink1717 2 #29 May 6, 2008 I thought about that, the academic environment appeals to me, but my degree is in exercise physiology, not fire science. In short, the words on my diploma are the wrong ones for that.Skydivers don't knock on Death's door. They ring the bell and runaway... It really pisses him off. -The World Famous Tink.
