Hi Dennis and list,
I live in what is reputedly the driest State in the driest Continent.
I relate very well to the situation there in San Diego.
What really makes one feel sick to the stomach is the "co-incidence"
surrounding the start of some of these fires.
Lightning strikes and such aside, there are some sickos out there who
love the smell of burning bush and the wail of sirens etc.
Take care and I sincerely hope that the fires are put under control
soon.
Regards,
Graeme Suckling

Subject: San Diego Burning
With all this trash talk going on the past couple days I think we need
to focus on some more important things.
Right now a raging fire is going on within 3 miles of my house and has
already consumed 1,000s of acres and approaching a 50 homes, and more
importantly, seven deaths. My house is hopefully not in the path,
although there are winds up to 60MPH and 5% humidity out there. I know
some of our Roadster friends are right in the middle of this fire.
Right now there are 5 major fires circling San Diego, all started this
morning around 8:30am......sorta strange???
Fire has just jumped a 10 lane freeway and is burning on the Miramar
Marine Air Station and they are thinking about getting some of the
planes out of there. Fire is burning right next to the runways . Not
a
good situation.
Here are a couple pictures I took about 30 min ago out my back yard:
Let's keep things in perspective.
