Question Is there anyone aat the fire department that, if someone wanted to know from an expert's point of view, you know, let's say the fuel is a couch, or a -- you know nylon, that that results in a certain amount of smmoke, or a tree or a carpet or a curtain?
Answer You're I mean, that's just fishing. I mean, you would have to know exactly wha couch and everthing like that. It's all hypothetical what your're asking. I mean there's scientific NFPA 921. It's a set of guidelines. It's got scientific numbers and stuff.
Question Right. And the NFPA issues standards and various recommendations and requirements, specs on certain things?
Answer Not standards, but guidelines
Question Guidelines?
So wether or not he as even read NFPA 921 would be purley speculative on my part, but my most probably not.
Best regards, Tony
