No; I'm not scrapping with my neighbor.  But I do have a problem with
a neighbor that is "scrapping".  For those (thankfully) out of the
loop, scrapping is collecting junk and then selling the metals.  For
example, scrap wire is usually thrown in a 55 gallon drum to burn off
the insulation and then the metal core of the wire is sold.  The
burning insulation releases compounds that would gag a maggot.

Anyhow...... this particular neighbor of mine is busily burning the
insulation off of quite a few feet of wire.  I live about 50 feet
from his burning barrel and I am getting the full aroma of this
enterprise.  Also, last week my neighbor let the fire get away from
him and could have easily burnt my house down.  I was in the woods
behind my house with a 5 gallon can of water putting out the fire.

Is there any way I can shut this raging peckerhead down?

Call the EPA - they will be very interested in illegal burning...
