    Anyone seen the news about them - they are still putting them out and it might take like 3 days, they are using something like 32,000 gallons of water a minute!!! and mixing it with foam and stuff - They dont even know how they started yet and the smoke is heading south (nearer to me eeekkkkk) I hope no-one from here is close to it or anything!!!

    According to the BBC it was heard up to 100 miles away, so I think the Holland thing is probably made up
