From the text ... 'I think we'll be utilizing fire a lot more than we have in the past in order to bring our ecosystems back into balance. ... FIRE 21 will help the Forest Service reach the desired future condition for our national forests by using fire management expertise to meet land management objectives. ... Safety comes first--there's really nothing out there that we protect as firefighters, except for the lives of other people that requires us to risk our lives.'
