In Centralia the main highway lies cracked and gashed; a noxious cocktail of carbon monoxide and other fumes pours out. The town is on fire.

The Government wants the residents to leave - much against their wishes. “They keep telling us we’re in danger - it’s their imagination!” charges 86 year old town mayor Mamar Mervine. “I think it’s a conspiracy to get the coal,” adds lifelong resident Joe Moyer.
