The Allegheny Front show

Summary: On this week's The Allegheny Front, we take a look at alternative fuels.  Most people have a propane tank or two around the house to fire up the backyard grill.  However, propane proponents say the fuel, which burns cleaner than diesel, could revolutionize the way we drive.  And Monarch butterflies are fluttering through the Northeast right now, but their numbers are declining.  Plus, in the wake of the shocking firefighter deaths resulting from the blazes in Arizona, a wilderness rescuer and rural volunteer firefighter thinks back on his own training fighting brush fires.  All this, and more. http://media.alleghenyfront.org.s3.amazonaws.com/AF070613Show.mp3
