'Montana Fire' by John McColgan

http://proliberty.com/observer/images/MontanaF.jpg

On August 6, 2000, one John McColgan, a fire behavior analyst from Alaska, was analyzing the behavior of the fire in the Bitterroot National Forest in Montana, and had his digital camera along. He took the attached striking photograph. Being on salaried time at the time, he couldn't market the picture privately, so he released it to the public domain.

And a Ping. to everyone else.

I can't make the map work, but the fires are east of the cascades, east more of Medford, barely. If you want to see what this area is like and the town of Jacksonville (the fires are south and east with this being the nearest town to the fires, except the small burg of Ruch), rent the western movie, "The Great Northfield Minnisota Raid". It was shot all over that area and in Jacksonville.....Back when we still LOGGED and cleaned up the mess and the FORESTS DIDN'T BURN ALL DOWN.....AND PEOPLE HAD JOBS!! PEOPLE THAT DON'T WEAR STUFFED FISHES ON THEIR EMPTY HEADS. I haven't heard how far into California the fire is. There are several small towns it could reach.

I gotta go take a walk. Living in So. Oregon in the past dozen years has not been unlike a country being invaded, overrun and then burned to the ground. What really amazes me is that most folks don't even realize they're living in a war zone. It's just happened slower than most "ethnic cleansing"....... kind of like the frog and the slowly-boiling pot of water. I've been screaming for 10 years, WE ARE RUNNING OUT OF TIME! It's real damn close to running out for most of us around here. I'm lucky, I'll find a way to survive...I always have, but many are not that fortunate. Jackson and Josephine county have the highest unemployment rate in the nation. They call Oregon "progressive". NO COMMENT. No, there will be no telethons for the people here who are losing everything. There will be no Enron head to blame and the enviro's dream has come true and they KEPT warning us....that the fish would die.......and ALL the wildlife in those charred forests, you freaks, I hope you're happy. The new spin, of course. is that logging has caused all these fires and that if old growth were in ALL forests, they wouldn't burn. DON'T believe it or I'll find you and slap ya.

I'm outta here, good people. Thanks for being here.

Regards, B.
