A ten tire pyre

According to the prosecution it would take ten tires to create the energy needed to cremate a body.

Q. All right. And while we're at that, would it be fair to say that it takes about 3 million BTUs to cremate a human body?

Q. All right. So, then, the average passenger tire would generate anywhere from about 280,000 to 300,000 BTUs of energy?

So assuming even if there was some wood involved or other fuel, we are talking about 9 tires necessary to cremate a body. And this is assuming Fallon's calculations already included the lost energy from being an outside fire.

Compare this to Eisenberg's testimony, On day 14 page 7, she states that she only smelled fuel from the box of bones from the barrel, and there were non-human bones in that box and she couldn't be sure which bones. But no fuel smell from bones in pit. Additionally, no burnt rubber: "Q. Now, you did not detect the distinctive smell of burnt rubber from any of the containers you examined here that contained human bone fragments? A. I did not. Q. And by that, I mean any of the containers, all of the tag numbers from whatever source? A. I did not. Q. Neither did you -- did you note any residue from, let's say burnt rubber, that was visible to you, in any of the containers you examined? A. No burned rubber, that's correct."

I have a hard time understanding how all traces and smells of ten tires would not be found on the bones themselves.
