#7 Too many companies and commissions. In an emergency, when public safety is at stake, the fire department's authority should supersede all others. If not, the fire chief should damn well release the water anyway and take his lumps afterwards. What's that old saying? "It's easier to ask forgiveness later than to ask permission beforehand."

#8 Limited fresh water.
Mountain filtered rain.
Don't know if there's an aquifer.

Why not fight fires with seawater?
Too corrosive on pipes?
Haven't seen many Forest Service contractors scooping water out of the bay.

Should the U.S. Air Force Bomb Forest Fires?

#10 No, he needs to have a conversation with the water. He should be flow by helicopter to the nearest, large body of water be allowed to commune directly with it. The water will gently catch him and cradle him once he hits.

#12 ^Skid, all Navy firefighting and toilet water is sea water, but it does take copper-nickle piping with non-ferrous bolts. Also regular urinal cakes are a bad idea.

#13 I'm sure the volcano requires a sovereign so it'd have to be the governor and maybe the lieutenant governor.
