Abstract
Ofen times in investigating the cause of a fire we find ourselves at the "area of origin", but sometimes we seem to have come to a temporary dead end as to the "point of origin" (due to on-site conditions, debris, or an apparent "even" burn). The aid that I am suggesting in this article might be the tool that could lead you right to the hottest point in the "area of origin" and perhaps you will find that the hottest point may turn out to be right over or adjacent to the "point of origin".
