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?  <div>
<br></div><div>Regardless of whether bales were involved, I would recommend extreme caution using a Salamander (fire-breathing dragon) to warm an unplastered bale building.</div><div><br></div><div>John<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">
