The City where the river burns true

[ZWarrior]

What, it didn't make sense?  Yep, I found out the in the Land of Cleves there is a river that has burned MANY times.

My favorite quote is from the second link:

Some River! Chocolate-brown, oily, bubbling with subsurface gases, it oozes rather than flows. "Anyone who falls into the Cuyahoga does not drown," Cleveland's citizens joke grimly. "He decays". . . The Federal Water Pollution Control Administration dryly notes: "The lower Cuyahoga has no visible signs of life, not even low forms such as leeches and sludge worms that usually thrive on wastes." It is also -- literally -- a fire hazard.

Here are a few links to about it...
