I think of "Cal Poly" as being in San Luis Obispo CA.

There are two Cal Polys. I went to the one in Pomona.

The Daily News website is down. Uh...oh....

I just got a break, this is getting pretty grim. I was in Claremont, San Dimas area working on fire line today. Very smokey with wind from the north now. We almost lost our L.A. Co. FS 62 in north CLaremont.

If anyone needs help evacuating or needs a place to stay if you've been evacuated post up here and we'll take care of it. My house is now full with but I'm sure we can find a spot instead of sitting in one of those evac centers.

If you need help getting livestock out post up here. There is plenty of help out here you just have to speak up.

And for heaven's sake, if you get an evac order get the heck out. I saw some utter stupidity today from people who were sneaking through fire lines to go back into the fire areas. People died near Crestline because they didn't heed the order. THere is nothing worth your life. If you have family anywhere on the mountain near Lake Arrowhead, tell them to get off the mountain. There are only a couple ways out and if the fire runs and cuts off one road they will never get out.

More later, need to rehydrate and take a shower, the falling ash is bad too here.

And can we just shoot them SOB looters on sight? Give us the order Governor Ahnold and we'll start plugging them as we see them.
