Wow, human stupidity at it's best. "Go ensure noone is starting fires of any time, you knwo how dangerous it is". "Ok, I'll just go start a fire to roast my marshmellow while I make sure the campers aren't smoking outside of safe areas".

Grr.

I personally think the fine should be 10% of the firefighting cost. Right now, that would be a touch over the maximum fine, around $670,000.
