Just gotta put it out there; whenever I hear people say "9 out of 10 forest fires are caused by humans" all I can think is "There's a bear out there somewhere who knows how to use matches..."

I always find myself questioning whether that statistic includes the myriad tiny, controlled burns that we use to limit the numbers of huge, uncontrollable nightmares. We finally figured that one out, after all, didn't we? Torching the forest a little bit at a time does near-miraculous good for slowing down the pace of fuel buildup.
