Remember that Chamber of Commerce reply last week by one of the Oregon Freepers in Medford that there really was no real smoke problem in the Medford/Grants Pass area?

Truth in posting should be required of some posters on FR.

A few years ago every Friday, we had an arsonist who started fires east of here in the late afternoon. If we had our normal evening SES breeze, I had to wear the dust masks from ACE hardware just to breath.

The bastard was never caught, but the fires stopped. A theory was that someone caught him, and he was no longer capable of starting fires.

I hadn't heard of that Chamber statement. The Shakespearean Festival is in full swing, so I'm sure they don't want the tourists knowing what the air is really like. It's always about money, isn't it?
