Just watching this website and it doesn’t sound good at all for Running Springs. Sorry if this is old news. I just came onto the thread again after being gone a lot today...

Actually, with brush, you sometimes allow to happen because it means you have to build twenty five percent less fire line once it happens.

I said to contact you!

But I certainly dont think there should be 22 different threads!

It is so much simpler with Pacific storms.

Hey Norm, Looking at the map, a physical merger of the LA County fires would be something terrible. As I look at it the fire would have to cover big chunks of the San Frenando Valley. Maybe they mean putting fire management of the Santa Clarita area fires under a single fire management.

The Mods have changed the title on this thread several times ...so I think they are trying to gently persuade peope to use this...but the San Diego has a lot of replies and dialog ....

Guess I ought to see what new info the LA Times might have on their site...they are doing some good stuff.

can’t the parents take care of their children?

That stopped a couple of decades ago. Teachers these days are frequently called on to be the custodian of the kid and to do the parenting that the biological parents don't have time to do. My dad quit teaching in the 80's after spending thirty years in the classroom. His final shot was, "If I wanted to be a warden, I wouldn't have gotten a teaching credential".
