Also some info here

Three-alarm fire reported at Skywalker Ranch - Marin Independent Journal

 

[Wes R]

Man I'd have put in a halon and every other first suppression system known to man into that place with all the stuff he has. Well if it's the main house and nothing is nearby it probably won't hurt much but better safe than sorry and he has his own fire fighters?

 

[Kerr Avon]

Maybe if we're lucky all the studio scale models for all the prequel stuff was destroyed so we never have to see it again.

Oh. Wait.

 

[Michael Bergeron]

The fire caused "little to no damage," said Lucasfilm spokeswoman Emilie Nicks.

Whew...

 

[TylerHam]

Well, there IS a full fire department ON the property -

I hear it was just a chimney fire -

 

[StarKill3r]

Chimney fire? WTF? What the hell else does a chimney do?

 

[Larry Young]

It vents smoke to the outside. Unfortunately, if you don't have your chimney chim-chim-cheroo'd often, tar and soot and various other goop accretes into creosote, which is highly flammable and will combust and cause some serious trouble if not immediately dealt with. If you don't clean this out:

...you get this:

...or worse.

I still think it was an ewok nest. (or Skaught, cause he was the last one there..)

Couldn't be. All the Ewoks were drowned in Lake Ewok on the property long ago.

Reports says that it was only Lucas burning a new batch of Holiday special tapes

I used to make my living in the fireplace business. Chimney fires can reach 3000 degrees Fahrenheit and if you think that's hot, keep in mind that your vitrified clay flue liners are fired to near the melting point at around 2200 degrees when made. Chimney fires often lead to cracked flue liners that if not repaired/replaced will lead to a house fire at some point. I'm glad no one was hurt (even Jar Jar). :behave

That's all KINDS of dirty....

 

[Larry Young]

I guess that's why you can't write Dick van **** on the board.

Lucas couldn't afford to have the chimney cleaned?
