Adam Heinemann The smoke from yesterday's fire is finally clearing up. Hope we don't have any more flames to worry about for a while. Too much wind and too little rain makes Adam = :-(

Adam Heinemann believes that no one should die because they couldn't get firefighters, and no one should go broke because they have a fire. If you agree post this as your status for the rest of the day. Demand universal firefighting.
