A post describes Incendiamoeba cascadensis, an amoeba from Lassen Volcanic National Park, as able to divide at about 63°C and survive brief exposures near 70°C by forming cysts. The author questions an idea they say others are floating: mass-producing or engineering the organisms for release to control fires. They ask how a water-dwelling, bacteria-eating organism could suppress burning vegetation, noting that fire fronts are far hotter than 63°C water. They also raise questions about containment, ecosystem effects and accidental releases, calling for scientific scrutiny rather than claiming the approach works.
