We don't have any because in Iowa we don't listen to uppity hippies.
Yes you do, thats why the levees broke[:D]
Note: after 20+ years of bizarre timber policy and the complete destruction of America's timber industry, our national forests are a mess. Up to 60 percent dead in many areas, due to beetle kill, and nobody to cut them. Makes great firewood, but I'm only one man and can't butn more than six cords a winter in my fireplace. You look at these forests, and you want to cry. It's a tinder box. Chalk up another one for the greenies.

No, that wasn't the hippies, that was Al Gores fault for inventing global flooding.[:D]
The governator has asked for help from adjoining states to fight the fires.
Don't know about the state, but there's a good one up at the end of my valley. Visibility is cut way down, smoke everywhere. Thunderstorm came through here the other day, and must have touched off a couple.

All that wood around and they still won't let you cut it.
Is that like a dangerous road?
Or an unruly storm?
Perhaps we should subdue that Wildland.
Civilize it.
For it's own sake.
But just wait till the 4th. Idiots
