Enflamed

Guardian p8

"Tropical forests are essentially inflam-
mable. You couldn't get a fire to burn there
if you tried..."

That's not quite what 'inflammable' means, is it? These are the experts, right?

**UPDATE**
Bah, they changed the text in the online edition

Dear Guardian,

Please can I have a job as a subeditor since the ones you currently employ have a slightly more crap grasp of the English language than me.

Yours

Chris Gilmour
