I couldn't figure out, from this account, just what DID burn...it's
described as a "steel and straw bale house" lit on fire because of a propane
leak, and pictures show a bunch of twisted steel beams.  Did the roof burn
after being ignited by a propane blast?
Regardless of whether bales were involved, I would recommend extreme caution
using a Salamander (fire-breathing dragon) to warm an unplastered bale
building.
