(and they wonder why we go to school for 5 years to learn this)
I've seen people outside of their homes trying to use a garden hose but the smoke gets to them. (Where's Rocco when ya need him?) Big sprinkler heads 10' in the air spraying large amounts of water around the perimeter of the property and on the house just might work.
10/8/1871- the great Chicago fire. Approximately 250 people were killed in the fire; 98,500 people were left homeless; 17,450 buildings were destroyed along with the original Emancipation Proclamation.
