And if I'm not mistaken, this area is not a "forest", its a rural area. Are you saying if its a forest fire, no one other than the forestery service should respond?

Opinionated me, why are you bashing the reporter? She reported that the forestery service was there assisting, after they were probably called in TO help because of the terrain and size of the fire. A lot of volunteer depts do not have the equipment to creat a fire cut, whereas the forestery service does. They were there to help, so why bash a reporter for reporting what happened. And for your information, the forestery service fights more fires than just forest fires.

I wonder how many people know who actually puts out forest fires in Arkansas? Its really sad the reporters just dont get it,the Arkansas Forestry Commission puts out forest fires! Granted the fire dept.'s are a great asset ,but you cant drive a fire truck in the woods. Keep up the good work AFC.

Probably some idiot throwing out a lit cigarette. See it all the time and get so infuriated. Don't throw anything out of your automobile. You start fires and also trash our roadsides. What is wrong with people.
