I am always amazed how many people, mostly city folks, like to burn wood. After growing up in the rural America clearing brush/trees & having to burn it and heating with wood; the last thing I want is more smoke & fire. A couple of years back we stayed at a Florida State Park East of Tampa over New Years and the city folk had so many fires the smoke looked like fog. They thought they were in heaven even tho you couldn't breath or enjoy the views. Shut the windows, turned on the AC and enjoyed my AC. Every time someone starts a fire, I start my AC!

reminds me of my fishing trips on the river years back. it seemed that most every island had a tent set up with two men and some boys and in the heat of summer they had to have a fire that was so intense that the flames were 4-5 ft tall. they had an obsession to burn every scrap of wood on the island, just for the sake of burning it.
