San Diego is so screwed right now. They deployed a bunch of their people up north, and now they are basically stuck. They have no reserves. They are all tapped out. Wonder if the President shouldn't talk to the Pentagon about releasing the marines at Pendleton who aren't deployed to Iraq right now.

Too bad there wasn't a plan beforehand. Maybe if the public had cared enough beforehand to demand a plan of action?

I heard the press conf. today with the Mayor of SD and the fire chief. He said there were no fires in SD county when he released to FF to San Bernadino. He talked about a California Shared Resources program (or something like that) which sends resources where they are needed. Once the FF are gone from their home jurisdiction they are under the direction of the State, not county or city. They couldn't get them back - but they were sent other resources from other parts of the state.

I think the Pendleton troops were very busy containing the fire at Camp Pendleton. They had it half contained yesterday. I don't know its status today.
