Jon Stewart had a great bit last week or the week before on the slimy tactic of using "nobody is suggesting" as an intro to a smear campaign.

Go to Climate Wizard to see a map of the 48 states showing how much average temperatures will go up.
It got up to 107° here two summers ago. Suddenly the killer frost from The Day After Tomorrow isn't looking so unappealing.

"Nobody is suggesting Teabaggers have carnal relationships with iguanas. Nobody is planning on drawing a critically acclaimed graphic novel based on this concept, featuring lead characters that no one would say looked strikingly similar to Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck."

I have a question for the Buffistas—a question about fire.
I live in an apartment, and I don't see that changing anytime soon. The apartment does not have a fireplace. That won't be changing anytime soon, either. I miss poking at flames.
The apartment does have a lovely common area/floodplane behind my building. I was thinking of getting one of these fire bowls so I could sit around it with my friends on crisp fall evenings, roasting marshmallows and trading links to our favorite fanfics.
So, my question. Are these things safe? We're a relatively unrowdy bunch, there are no kids around, and the drinking would be somewhere between moderate and nil. There are places without overhanging trees to set up, and I could have a fire extinguisher and a water hose handy. Other people in the complex fire up grills all the time, but they're the expensive gas things with solid covers.
What do you think? Lovely, atmospheric fun or a trauma waiting to happen?
