Western Wildfires - Horrific, Destructive...and Unnecessary

(This stuff sounds amazing!  Certainly would save millions of gallons of fresh water trying to put out the fires each year.

But of course, the feds don't/won't want it, much like Kevin Costner's biodegradable product that would have contained the Gulf Oil spill wasn't wanted...these technologies ride straight in the face of what the elitist overlords want to achieve...the immediate shutdown of natural resources to everyone else (you and me), so they can manipulate and control the resource(s) while ultimately depopulating the earth.  Whacked! I know...but apparently coming together quite nicely for them.)
