I just want to say Thanks for all the prayers & kind words. They've meant alot. Last Monday evening I decided to burn some brush from a tree that had fallen a few months back. Where it had been so wet I decide to through a lil (more like alot) gas on it just to make sure it would start quick. I've done this a hundred times so what could happen. What I didn't think about was the brush was piled on a hillside which caused the fumes which are heavier than air to flow down hill & there was no wind. I stepped back about 15' but lil did I know I was standing right in the middle if all the fumes. Needless to say I burnt the brush but got myself while I was at it. After getting to watch the burn nurse cut my skin off & scrub me with a brush I thaught I'd share this. Finally after some good nurses & my wife treating me back to health I'm healing up. I guess what I'm trying to say is don't take stupid chances what ever it is. It's not worth it. Thanks Again, ROB DUNLAP

Wow! That sucks, I was set on fire when I was 6 by playing in a fire that had hair spray cans in it. I can still remember that plastic brush. Glad you are feeling better.
