[QUOTE="KingofThings, post: 190752, member: 468"]This fact was a source of much grief before fire stations were established by the communities. Bullding owners would bid to have the firemen leave one burning building for another for more $. I believe this happened in both the 'great' Chicago fire and the 1906 SF earthquake and fire. A small note.... the USN did much to help people and keep looting down during the initial SF earthquake and fire panic.[/QUOTE]
