Default Burning green/wet firewood

Are you the mean man who burned Santa a couple years back? You should
be ashamed.

I did nearly 30 years ago. The little box stove was very hot.
Then
I started hearing the airflow. It got loud and I cut the air intake
totally although I wasn't totally sure that I was having a chimney
fire.
After a few minutes it stopped. I didn't call the Fire Dept but
probably should have. [Neighbors told me flames were shooting up 30
feet and airplanes were avoiding the area. :-)]

As anyone who has ever had a chimney fire will attest to ;)
