* I always thought that fire chemistry was taught in all the basic FF certification classes, but it looks like that’s not the case. STATter911 has a disconceting story about a FD in New Jersey that built a bonfire for a high school homecoming rally. It leads off with a picture that has to take the honors for being the most amazing photograph for all of November. CLICK HERE to see it for yourself.
* The Fire Critic has a compendium of videos from a variety of large fires that occurred on Thanksgiving Day from several places HERE.
* The Street Watch has a “day in the life of….” moment that manyof us have seen before, but he tells about it a lot better HERE.
* He didn’t mean to do it….. but Bill Gabbert at Wildfire Today has just destroyed someone’s childhood memories of Smokey the Bear. He tells the whole, sad story HERE.
* The Chicago Area Fire Departments website hit a big milestone yesterday. They now have every single Chicago FD fire station linked with photos of the stations and at least some of the apparatus at each. Still some blanks to fill in, but as we mentioned a couple of weeks ago, it’s a developing site and growing every day. Go to THIS PAGE and then click on the Chicago FD link in lower center to start your tour of Chicago.
