I think it was arson. Probably a terrorist attack caused by an evil islamic terrorist.

Ahmed, run!  They have found us out!

This cannot be, my brother!  We were so careful!

Xzeno, pH, Alt... I am disappoint.

Colorado was so nice. My ski trips to those multi-million dollar resorts and those exclusive, sin-filled clubs in Denver are no longer there.

I must now cry myself to sleep and pray to a God I'm not sure exists and make sure I double vote republican this year.

I fear we may have been infiltrated.  For now, we have to flee the country.  I will contact Saleem and arrange our escape.  Inshallah, we will live to fight the infidels another day.

Well, if you need a place to stay, there's only one place you can hide from NATO and get pot from coffee shops-
Amsterdam.

On a serious note, I've noticed that these wild fires happen about most years. Of course some people die, and some people lose their houses, but it made it on national headlines.
Oh wait, that was FOX . . .

The real issue is the pine beetles, if they can't be marginalized the state will continue to be a tinder box for years to come.  This year was remarkably bad because of low snow fall, but the decreasing length of winters is allowing the pine beetles to successfully hibernate instead of being killed off by the cold.  Fix that and you are in business to help protect pine forests especially in the Rockies

It's a good thing for the ecosystem, and a good thing for mother nature.

Ok, true but there is a joyous mindreader there, take the Yellowstone fire, it burned a ton, and the forest is still trying to heal itself, little fires every once in a while = mostly good, no little fires and one big ginormous fire = pritty bad!

(Joyous Mindreader = Happy Medium)

this year is your last year.
from 1 jan. 2013 only people whit the dutch identity are allowed to buy.

this will most likely cause much street criminality that we do not have today like street dealers.
so it will probably not stay for long. but nontheless will you be unable to buy from us for a period of time.

(it's because other countrys were crying about drug runners from the netherlands that we have to ban all foreigners. it's not exactly the will of our government)
