Mysterious Fire Destroys Warehouse

Farmingdale - Late last night a two alarm fire brought volunteer firefighters from four neighboring towns to the industrial district just outside Farmingdale where the SpringDew Web Design warehouse was already more than half consumed by flames. 
    "All we could do was watch," said one of the first firefighters on the scene.  "The roof was going and there was just no way to save it."  The entire inventory was destroyed, creative works since the end of September of last year, which had been specially packed against breakage and even palleted against flood. 
    "Yeah, well, of course it sucks," said the owner, Spring Dew.  "That's a lot of inventory, and it's gone.  But I'll start over.  I've done it before, and I can do it again.  Thank god for insurance." 
    Investigators have yet to disclose their findings as to the cause of the fire, which occurred around midnight, when no workers were supposedly on the premises.  At this point, arson has not been mentioned as a likelihood by the police, although rumors abound.
