Could somebody in the Wheaton lab please put together a post about all the wildfire mitigation measures you guys are taking? And how effective they are going to be if there's a fire in the vicinity?Pictures would be helpful. Thanks!

I'm not sure if this helps, but here's some podcasts about wildfires that Paul did:

Podcast 514 - Wildfires - Part 1

Podcast 514 - Wildfires - Part 2

There's also a really fantastic thread by Erica Wisner (who's presented at Wheaton Labs for both a PDC as well as Rocket Mass Heater events and probably other events). She's also a firefighter:
