Re: The FR Radio promo post on this thread...I understand how you could have taken this the way you did, given your personal experience in this situation. I also believe that BobJ didn't plunge forward in blatant disregard of the feelings of those in a similar position.
I do not know anyone whose home is/has been endangered in this perilous circumstance, but I certainly have been seeking as much information as possible. If indeed the fires were to be a central topic in this FR radio broadcast, I would myself not have thought it untoward to point people to a proprietary online source of discussion on the subject. Perhaps that was BobJ's intent.
Mohave and other desert dwellers will be able to relate to this... here in the upper Antelope Valley on any given night, I can see a billion stars straigt up, and lots of lights off in the distance -- some as far away as 20 or 30 miles. Tonight, there is ZERO long range visibility. No Palmdale lights, no Hesperia/Phelan twinkling, no Lake Los Angeles. It's as black as tar... like drifting in outer space or something.

Baloney, its essentially a popup ad. I have sofware that zaps those out in the real world...
