Not clear. While geocaching, I came upon a camp fire that was still
smouldering in the woods. Because I didn't know the phone number for
the closest towns, I called my home town fire department, ID'd myself
and asked them for the number. Then I called that number and they
asked, "Where are you?" and I gave them "N42....W071....". Uh huh.
What town are you in? I replied, "a State owned forest."

"OK. But WHERE are you?".... It went on like that until I agreed to
meet the fire truck at the trailhead and walk them in.


You came across a smoldering camp fire and called the fire department?
It would take less then 5 minutes to put the thing out but you made a
call and then left the fire? You're a moron.


That was completely uncalled for.
