I'm sorry but WHY on earth has that not been done yet?

wishful thinking probably. They do not want to move fragile patients unless absolutely necessary. The stress of the move might be bad on some of them, so they don't want to do it, unless they absolutely have to do so.

Are you referring to the hospital? I don't know except that they feel there is time and mileage still between where the fire is and Big Bear. Arrowhead hospital was evacuated right away about 4 days ago.

Bob Banfield who has been on the news for ages said he did not feel safe in Arrowhead Village now so he was moving to Big Bear. To me that says a lot when a reporter gets out.

Scanner: their talking about when the fire reaches 38 - I assume the ambulances will go north, to Apple Valley because by the time they get down to mill creek via 38, the fire could be blocking their exit.
