      Yet there ARE massive fires ... and generally in S.America,   
      not just Columbia.   
      
      S.America HAS seen major drought in the past, as noted.   
      It destroyed a number of early advanced empires. Looks   
      like we MAY be seeing the NEXT dry cycle. A LOT of that   
      rain-forest may turn brown again. Of course SOME, who   
      slept through history class, will say it's SUVs ......
