Okay, what you and Dave said makes some sense, but rapid burning of anything saturates the air with bad stuff and is injurious to all living animals. Isn't that one of the reasons why they have bad air alerts when they have those Quebec controlled burns? Or when my FU neighbor decides to burn trash and makes the neighborhood air unhealthy to breathe?

The main problem with the "biomass carbon neutral" argument is that it is time neural.

Andy - McKittrick Canyon

> Yeah, but if you turn around the other direction in that first picture you can see a forest of hardwoods including oak, Bigtooth Maple and Ponderosa Pine. Did you hike into McKittrick Canyon?

Yes. We hiked quite a ways up the river past the Grotto. Beautiful Country! ML Binge from the other board recommended it.

Those picnic tables are from single slabs of stone.

FOr some reason, today's environmentalists are totally focused on Carbon and seem to forget about all the other pollutants.

Actually, I think rapid burning is cleaner than slow smouldering.

I wonder if Moses got a burn permit for the burning bush?

I don't think he lit the fire - not his responsibility.

Dear Mr. God:

We have determined that your proposed burning bush is a project for purposes of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) therefore you will be required to conduct an Environmental Impact Study (EIS).

Regards,

CalEPA
