     Readers,
     
     The fire near Los Alamos is not a brush fire it is called a forest 
     fire.  The fire has burnt over 13,000 acres.  New Mexico is VERY dry 
     and the fire was caused by two German tourist who left a camp fire 
     unattended.
     
     Sorry that this is not a radiation related topic but wanted to set the 
     story straight on this topic.

Dear Los Alamos Radsafers:
     
I saw on the morning news a report about a heavy brush fire near LANL. Hope 
all's well. What's the latest news?
