Heat or cold as little bearing on forest fires . Even in hot weather it ' s not hot enough for wood to spontaneously combust , yous still need a fire source . And once you get a fire going , whether the ambient air around is 15 C or 45 C doesn ' t change that much . What ' s important is the dryness and the strong winds . And yes , some of those fires might have been started by arson , but in a saner weather they wouldn ' t be able to spread that well and would be much easier to keep under control . <| sep |> YOU should be ASHAMED of yourself . Joking about Americans not deserving to get paid or have jobs , and using your position of power to try and manipulate freedom of speech . People like you are why the world is in such terrible shape . You are why pedophiles are able to continue abusing and torturing children . YOU are what is WRONG with this world . SHAME ! SHAME ! SHAME !
