Ok, maybe it is not just a younger generation thing. How many people thought the NEw York black out was terrorism? This is just the world we live in.

Mt, a good friend of mine ownes a company called frontline medical. He and a few other paramedics provide the first aid and rescue support at the base camps at large fires, he is somewhere down there now, left 2 days ago, rakes in the bucks during a hot fire season. I think he said he was going to be near Rancho Coucamonga??? Not sure.

I suggest you chill out a little.

Eh? chill? I weren't the one who brought up 'terrorism' paranoia into the picture.
What comes to the shopping mall on fire, theres more reason to believe it being 'terrorism' than a forrest fire.

Thats the Lytle Creek fire. Although thats not the name it has now... I think they are calling it the Grand Prix fire. Not sure why.

Good luck to your friend. The other day they lost a water dropping helo. The pilot parked on a ridge and the fire turned. Crew got out, but no time to take the helo off the ridge. Its a burned hulk now.
