New pine trees planted by volunteers next to this natually-regrowing area are also doing well. <br><br> Fire is a natural part of the life cycle and I HATE seeing what I consider to be MY trees being killed.  At least I am reminded once again that man's stupidity (the Curve fire was deliberately set by Christian cultists conducting an animal-burning ritual in the woods) some times nature recovers. <br>  <br> <\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","contact":"feedback@crystallake.name","link":"http:\/\/www.crystallake.name\/","address":"","phone":"","parent_id":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","summary":"New pine tree growth in the aftermath of the Curve Fire","numcomment":5,"fileurl":"\/uploads\/2007\/10\/vom024.jpg","filesize":"77.8 kibibytes","article_url":"\/news\/2007\/10\/209217.php","image":{"original":"\/uploads\/2007\/10\/vom024.jpg","small":"\/uploads\/2007\/10\/vom024.jpgthumb.jpg","medium":"\/uploads\/2007\/10\/vom024.jpgmid.jpg"}},"attachments":[{"id":209218,"heading":"Regrowth","article":"","author":"Fredric L.
