I took mine down and to show my wife what a fire hazard it was, I put it in my fire pit and flicked my lighter once near a branch for less than a second. Within 15 seconds the tree was engulfed in thick flames and within 3 minutes it was smoldering charcoal. I will never bring a dead tree in my house and attach electricity to it ever again. |

Walter-Prometheus" The road to freedom lies not through mysteries or occult performances, but through the intelligent use of natural forces and laws.
