Hans, I was sorry to hear about that this afternoon. Those people have a very dangerous job.

It's bad enough to have a dangerous job but now they have declared that the fire was ARSON. Just what every firefighter needs is an idiot to create this type situation. There are a total of 4 gone now and the 5th is in critical condition with about 80% burns over body.
