How do they know it was arson? The place is about as disposed to catching fire as any natural landscape can be.

I *think* it's because they rule out other causes. They can tell when lightning strikes the ground, so they can rule that out. It's not on the road, so it's not people flicking cigarettes out car windows (which happens, stupid as it may be). And it's not near campsites or houses or anywhere that people might be lighting fires, though that might count as arson anyway on a fire ban day. I think they just assume if it's none of the above then it has to be arson. In some cases, there were witnesses that people were loitering about right before the fire started.

Nate, what's the deal with not being able to donate blood?
|
You're not allowed to donate if you've had male-to-male sex in the last 12 months.
Which was stricter than I expected; I thought they'd specify unprotected. But it's more lenient than some places in the USA who ban anyone who's gay irrespective of sexual experience.
Still, better safe than sorry.
