I was having lunch at Applebee's around 1:30ish on Saturday. Suddenly, there was a huge commotion outside. Firetrucks with lights a flashin', sirens a blarin' Lots of 'em.... yellow ones and red ones... and the traffic had to all filter to the farthest left hand lane. From what I gather, there was a fire in the lobby and it escilated pretty quick.

Thanks for the info! Yeah, it looks like it was burning pretty well before they snuffed it.

We drove by before the fire trucks got there, and the fire was a rip-roaring rolling in the front of the building.

When I was a smoker, it used to always tick me off when somebody put a lit cigarette in a trash can or a public ashtray (like one of those goofy "smoker's outpost" things). It takes a few seconds to separate the burning tobacco from the butt before throwing it away. As a former smoker, it enrages me. Seeing the damage done here really ticks me off, because it was an act of stupid carelessness that caused it.

I believe that the smoker's outposts are designed to "snuff" the butt out due to lack of oxygen. I made my own out of 5 gallon water bottles and 2" pvc. They are ~1/2 full with no fires, yet.
