| Yep, it is. My older sis had to stay with since her house is so close to the fire line. It is okay now. FX is right. Those Santa Ana winds are brutal.

| Well, as Tristan said, 1,000,000 people were evacuated as of yesterday in these fires. If I thought that the Cedar Fire of 2003 was really bad, this to me is worst. Qualcomm Stadium is still being used as an evacuation center. The San Diego State University game with Brigham Young was pushed back to Dec. 1. The NFL has not decided if the Chargers will host a home game this Sunday vs. Houston. I doubt that the Chargers will play at home that day. Around Camp Pendleton, which is where the Marine Corps is located, I-5 is shut down in both directions between Oceanside and San Clemente. Amtrak and Metrolink have suspended their service. I was lucky to take the Coaster train this morning, even though it was 30 minutes later. I donated more platelets yesterday at the local blood bank. There were people standing in long lines waiting to donate blood as well. The American Red Cross is asking for monetary donations for the fire relief. Hope you can spare a few bucks.

  | I have been hearing reports that they believe the cause of the fire was arson. I hope that if this is the case not only do they catch the bastard, but as part of his punishment they include restitution to the people he/she has harmed. dmk Conservatism, I repeat is not an ideology. It does not breed fanatics....But if you want men who seek, reasonably and prudently, to reconcile the best in wisdom of our ancestors with the change which is essential to a vigorous civil social existence, then you will do well to turn to conservative principles -Russell Kirk- | |||||||||||||||||||||

You can probably get more information if you log onto the L.A. Times or the Orange County Register newspapers. At least seven arsonists were caught in the L.A. - Orange County alone. I do not know of any in the San Diego County area. Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. Psalm 119:105 | ||||||||||||||||||||||
