I mentioned that story in the 2014-05-23 update. They burned down a vacant house and the lady next door got pissed because the heat damaged HER home. Here's that story:<br /><br />http://www.firerescue1.com/fire-attack/articles/1917551-Homeowner-Firefighters-burning-vacant-homes-overnight/<br /><br />Not sure how they're dealing with the legal issues of doing that.Jonny Mnemonichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06516458612879773986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4388504906915444063.post-44016324041038070482014-07-12T11:11:24.614-05:002014-07-12T11:11:24.614-05:00I imagine sitting 1/3 way up one of my really tall...I imagine sitting 1/3 way up one of my really tall trees (> 100') and viewing my entire property stacked with wrecked cars. Yeah, that'd be a big fire, right there.<br /><br />Thanks for the explanation above. <br /><br />Driftwood (leaves, sticks, any kind of wood) spontaneously going up in flames? Dude, we're in so much trouble . . . <br /><br />Ya know, you'd think the "authorities" would clear big structures that have already burned a few times and are vacant. Probably costs too much or there's legal crap involved that prevents them from doing it, while it protects the landowner from liability if he's already bankrupt (esp. if it's a corporation - hell, they get away with everything).<br /><br />Keepin' an eye on all that electrical infrastructure being destroyed every day. Sooner or later it's not going to be replaced.<br /><br />Thanks Jonny.<br /><br />Tom<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4388504906915444063.post-89817662674660430612014-07-12T08:39:12.357-05:002014-07-12T08:39:12.357-05:00I think adsorption is the problem. That's what...I think adsorption is the problem. That's what gases do, they cling to the surfaces of stuff, that's adsorption. So some hydrogen sulfide (or methane, or both) blows through at 3 AM or whatever, and smears a thin layer of molecules onto materials. And more the next day and more the next. Eventually fires start breaking out, because it's so flammable.<br /><br />This may also be one way it poisons people - as they touch stuff that's been adsorbing hydrogen sulfide over time. Lot of people have been found dead in or near trash cans, at landfills, recycling centers, all of which are spontaneously igniting. So these people are probably scavenging or whatever, and they get poisoned by skin contact. But it could be on/in anything now, like fabric in cars if you leave your windows down, insulation (lots of fibers means lots of surface area), leaves, mulch, foliage, and it may be dissolved into water too, in all its forms: humidity, fog, mist, rain, snow.<br /><br />I thought about mapping out just the events in my own area and decided it'd probably just scare the crap out of me if I did, so I didn't.
