Hardly local news, but stories like this always get to me.

Dead is dead, but burning is a truly horrible way to get there.

The thing I find frightening is how quickly the smoke spreads and makes it hard to see.  And I know we are all trained time and again with fire drills, but when that adrenaline starts going, people become George Costanza.  

I read some articles on this fire, and it lists some other fires in Thailand from the past few years and when will people stop setting off pyrotechnics inside???

Footage from the front exterior of the club is terrifying.   Fire was blasting out out of a door or window opening like a jet engine.
