Description

From the text ... 'Some of today's firefighters weren't even born when the Fire Effects Information System (FEIS) (Web site <http://www.fs.fed.us/database/feis>) 'hit the streets' in 1986. Managers might remember using a dial-up connection in the early 1990s to access information on biology, ecology, and fire offered by FEIS.'
