<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=572355923-12042013><FONT color=#0000ff
size=2 face=Arial>I fondly recall a Beltane a few years back where a MASSIVE
fire stack was built with straw bales, big logs and branches, scrap
lumber and just about anything else that could burn. The site owners
encouraged it as they wanted the cleared out stuff gone. But most of the
ingredients were wet and would not catch, that is until someone tossed on a few
gallons of Diesel. The explosion was spectacular and because the fire
stack was in a well graded area no one was hurt and nothing that wasn't meant to
burn was damaged. And we had strong hot fire until morning
