Good grief, the last thing those people need in SoCal is a presidential visit. We just spoke to our former coworkers down there, one had his house burned to the ground and the other barely escaped destruction, both in subdivisions that nobody thought would ever burn. Do people think they want to take a break for a Presidential photo op?

When will people understand that our President doesn't act based on polls or potential votes, but rather according to the situation and what's right?

Gray Davis may be an incompetent boob, but he's the sitting governor. It's his responsibility to be there right now, not the President's. The feds can send money and assistance, but that's it.

Eastlake is eastern Chula Vista. Just west of Otay Mountain and east of the area around Southwestern College.

[Conservative4Ever]

don't ya just hate stupid people. What sick pups. A toss off a cliff might change their minds about their actions. Geez

[Conservative4Ever]

Our prayers are with you, your neighbors and the firefighters. Hang tough, but if the wind starts up again heed the advice of the authorities and bail.

What he said!!!! Prayers going out.

[Eowyn-of-Rohan]

yeah, they are the ones you wish would get their come-uppance... stupid or evil, or both?

[Conservative4Ever]

I vote for both...

[Trampled by Lambs]

There was a seperate SD thread but the mods, in their wisdom, pulled it as a dup.

[ladyinred]

I know what you mean. One time my hubby and I drove into a mt. resort area in the Sierra for dinner. While we were eating a wild fire started on the mountain. Ash was raining down on us as we came out of the restaurant. The CHP escorted those of us up there back down, fire was raging on all sides of us on the highway, and it was becoming doubtful that we could get down. They closed the road right as we made it away from the fire, or else we would have had to go back up into the higher elevations. Frightening beyond words what fire can do.

[farmer18th]

We have family evac'd from Lake Arrowhead as well... the Blue Jay side east of Crestline. Any news?

Nothing new that I've heard. Sorry.

[Conservative4Ever]

[sigh]but not in the same areas at all...don't wanna get banned from the ranch...so I will keep quiet. Two threads would make better sense to me. But, what do I know.

[Conservative4Ever]

City Creek...immediate need

Hildy's friends who are being evacuated, live across from Cuyamca College off Jamacha, in El Cajon/Rancho San Diego area.

Hildy says there's smoke everywhere -- all around her and particuarly her friends' area.

Very serious, I am waiting to hear from Hildy again!

[Fitzcarraldo]

Given there is only one thread now, when describing an incident please state location.

[LikeLight]

10 News Conference: 2 dozen more possible deaths (plus the 11 already) . . .

[maggief]

What's the date of those dispatch reports, obviously not today since it's not yet 10:00 am pst. Could you post the url.

Thanks.

Davis gave away the store to his special interests leaving our firefighters with nothing! It reminds me of the sketch on Saturday Night Live during the anthrax scare. They were holding a press conference and the reporteer asked what was being done to prevent future attacks. The official went on to explain that they have installed a 10 million dollar, state of the art security system to protect the Senate and House. The reporter then asked what was being done about the post office and the official stated, we've given them a dust buster and a roll of paper towels.

Kinda like what's going on here!

[Conservative4Ever]

when and if they give it..I do.

[lainie]

there were dual threads running all weekend but [shrug]

[mo4bush]

Hildy lives in Spring Valley near Rancho San Diego.

[Fitzcarraldo]

Sorry, I meant that for all here, not you in particular. ;^)
