Per the article in my local paper the other day, burning produces PCBs
and other contaminants, very black dense smoke, residue contains
hazardous metal such as lead, etc. Anyone seeing one of those fires
shouldn't need a reason as it should be obvious it ain't good for the
environment. Seems since teh price of scrap has skyrocketed they are
finding lots of these burn sites in out-of-the-way places.
