If you attempt to explain to someone the cause of a fire is Undetermined Accidental. How can that be possible ? To determine you would have to prove No random, spontaneous, or mysterious event has occured. Undetermined Accidental is a contradiction. If the cause is Undetermined It's Undetermined. I wonder if what Steve posted "How do I ever make a call of Accidental" can be answered without adding information that is only probable. That brings you back to Undertimined. The cause is Undertimined. Doesn't "best probable analysis" still really leave you with Undertimined?
