So there are fires burning up and down the Colorado front range. At least one person has died already. The air inside the house makes my eyes burn. It seems like a good time to be careful.

There are people seriously talking about the possibility of a serial arsonist setting these things off. But, then, some idiots decided that last night would be a good time to go play with fireworks above town and duly set another one. I guess we should not attribute to malice that which can be explained by appalling stupidity.

@corbet we had a close call about a mile away from where I live now here in Berkeley a month ago for the same reason - thankfully it was a calm night, but all the fire engines rushing past my house gave cause for alarm. https://www.berkeleyside.org/2024/07/02/fire-extinguished-in-berkeley-hills-monday-night
