Poor Somchai..

Stuck in that little room all day

Got his GPS monitors fired up

Has his sensors to spot those nasty firestarters

Checking the air every 20 mins

Licking his finger than holding it up

to see if any particles stick to it--then tastes it..smoky!

Atta boy ...time for a nice stroll outsi....COUGH--HACK--WEEZ..ACK!

Might be ok in Lampang, but here in Phan, the air is crap...! If I can't see the hills that are half a kilometer away and around my house, there is something wrong...! But they will continue to MONITOR those fires...Same B/S every year...!
