Fireplace ban, fines effective today
Bay Area residents who violate a new ban on burning wood fires on chilly Spare the Air nights could face some of the toughest fines in California — hundreds or even thousands of dollars per violation.
Effective today with the start of the burn season, the new Bay Area rule bars people from burning wood fires in fireplaces and wood stoves on bad air nights. The rule also bars excessive smoke from indoors fires any time of year.

What a f$%^ing Joke! Spare the air? Spare me the intrusion. I am going to start my suburban and let it idle for the next three hours. Take that!

What a joke. Maybe they should ban the wildfires. What are people supposed to do for heat? Maybe they could invite politicians over to talk...that would create plenty of warmth. Surprising nobody has linked politicians talking to global warming since they generate almost as much heat as the sun.
