Of course. :D
I read your post, "People are posting about fires who know nothing about fires," and wanted to point out that some use their advanced knowledge and experience as firefighters to reach the conclusion that the Paradise fires were not natural.
The average firefighter is not trained in how fires start; Fire Marshals are. Specialized training above and beyond most firefighters; in our local Fire Department there is one Fire Marshal, who inspects fires during and after the fact to find the point of ignition, checks for chemicals residue, takes into account win direction at the time, and a lot more.
So, in short, even a very good firefighter is not trained in, nor do they attempt to determine, causes of fires. Of course many are obvious, a candle falling and starting a curtain on fire, etc. Wild fires aren’t necessarily so easy.
I think we have a few people that have seen and dealt with wildfires - I watched one nearby a few years back, the same year that the Chalet Village went up in flames in Gatlinburg. The one I saw was on the mountainside and burned for a couple of weeks. Lots of smoke in the air, and I used numerous HEPA air filters during that time frame. They fought it with helicopters that scooped water out of the river nearby and poured it on the fire. I don’t have details about other techniques used, but I will say that it was exceptionally dry - severe drought conditions.
Likewise, LJ’s hubby has worked wildfires out west. Which apparently are a lot more common than I realized. Anyway, he’s seen burn patterns as well.
We also have a government that is decidedly doing all it can to destroy the country. Arson, by whatever means available, is not out of the question. Any disaster should be investigated outside of the government, as they cannot be trusted.
I continue to collect information.
