You're weird! We don't set cities on fire...so far. At least not as
far as I know, or will admit to in court.

But the idea of a traveling bURNINGvAN, now that's genius. That way we
could stay one step ahead of the cops, and the purists who decry
setting vans on fire, the spoilsports.

I'm planning to provide BenT will the pictures I took, all of vans at
his request, but I can't remember how to reduce the quality so I can
actually send them. I seem to remember doing it in photoshop but that
seems clumsy.
