Here's a break down of how the fires got started:…

Yeah, I've got that on my "to do" list. I try to write articles and then make them available for download. This weeks series on eye protection is going to be available as a .doc at the end of the week.
Our website at www.nationalsafetyinc.com also has some of the other articles I've written available for free download as well.
I want to eventually have powerpoints available for download as well for use in safety meetings, training, etc... but that's down the road a ways. Thanks for the suggestion.

You are pretty good at this kind of blogging stuff....really good....with excellent content. Is there a way to add a power point to a blog or gizmo area?
