It was a furnace in, I think, Nick's father's house that they found Amy's journal burned not destroyed in (to make it seem like Nick was trying to get rid of some evidence).

I did actually listen to this paragraph in the interview again and Fincher says "...yippie-ya-yay..." then sort of corrects himself and says "...kay-yay..." — so I'd still uphold it's highly unlikely he meant "cahier". I mean, "yippie cahiers"?! That'd be kind of odd, no?
