I guess that is a little advanced. Sure. I guess I can pratter on about what I had for breakfast this morning. Then I can update you on my going out and buying a paper. Then I'll talk about the phone call I got. You're a self-absorbed little prat, aren't you? Right now it's hard to get information about the fires that's current and specific to one's area. The TV is focused on pictures from the various field reporters and the newspaper sites empasize the big picture and not terribly up to date. Here's a challenge. Find something said on RAO that isn't represented more accurately, wiht more detail, and more up-to-date on: http://www.signonsandiego.com/ especially: http://www.signonsandiego.com/news/fires/ataglance.html and http://www.msnbc.com/news Actually, most of the best information I'm getting is coming from friends and relatives going out and looking and then calling each other. The next best comes from blogs and people on the ground--like Scott--who report what they see and know to everyone else. Right now with things changing by the minute bottom up beats top down big time. It's what makes the Internet great, hell, it's what makes democracy great. It's too bad you don't have a good word for it. Thanks for the urls, I check them too. David Joslin |

MSNBC (the home page on my pc at home and at work) is short on details, but is timely on major events The newspaper is a little better on details, but not very timely. Scott, keeping up with local radio and tv, was timely and had more specific info that was of interest to me. ----== Posted via Newsfeed.Com - Unlimited-Uncensored-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeed.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 100,000 Newsgroups ---= 19 East/West-Coast Specialized Servers - Total Privacy via Encryption =--- |

Then I remember some insensitive comments made by some, including me, about the DC sniper. In addition, I'm watching the fires from my front yard, and they've moved within three miles of where I live, and it's gotten to the point where I'm hosing down my roof because I'm seeing embers here and there. In other words, at this moment, I empathize with Scott's concerns. Boon |

These people were at work, able to get usenet, yet weren't able to type in www.cnn.com ? Who are these people? And nobody thought (at least not articulated) that my "reportage" was excessive. I was *asked* to continue posting what *some* of us were seeing on CNN and NBC. Not one person said that it was excessive. If it had bothered you, you should have said something, just like *I* did. shrug Nice to find out that I've had such an effect on you though. It swells me with pride...

Scott's information was much more specific, such as to locations of affected areas. Even the local news was screwed at times as they were in information overload. I saw a map of road closures on KUSI that had an arrow on Highway 78 saying closed at Pine Bluff Road. Trouble was the arrow was about where my house is and Pine Bluff Road is about 20 miles east on the other side of Escondido. Apparently (my kid's info from AIM) his school is closing the rest of the week due to the smoke. ScottW |

In other words, at this moment, I empathize with Scott's concerns. Boon Just to clarify, I simply said this: "Ummmm, do we *really* need all of these updates"? And then Scott ( and a couple of others) felt like he had to jump on me. I sympathize with those few of you who are being affected by this. But to have an ASSHOLE - (yes, guys, I know that you've actually visited Scott, so you have a different perspective), a guy who's whole life here on RAO is to be judge, jury and executioner in as few words as possible, start posting mountains of information about minute to minute changes in the wind just rubbed me the wrong way. It seemed self-pitying and self-serving as well. And frankly, I could have been far more caustic than I was - I simply noted that posting scores of updates (which is how it seemed to be going) was worth commenting on. The fact that I gave updates on 9-11 seems to me to be a whole different dimension of interest to the group. Sure, the fires in So. Cal. are fairly bad fires of the type that we seem to suffer each year in different parts of the country. And I didn't really mind a couple of postings. But to post stuff that probably had specific relevance to virtually nobody, just seemed like an effort to garner sympathy. I notice that *you* and Art didn't feel compelled to act like Jesus on the cross. and yet, I hope that all works out for you, obviously. for Scott to beat up on me for my comment means that I really *don't* care so much about whether or not he'll be cooking giant lobsters on his roof. I understand all of that. I'm not trying to say that one person is right and the other is wrong. But it is really scary to be in the middle of all this, and maybe Scott's updates made him feel at least a little bit better. BTW, I was in Scott's neck of the woods today, and I'm sure I was only a few miles from the fire. In other words, I traveled almost 140 miles from my house, where there was fire, to Scott's house, where there was fire. That kind of puts a perspective on the size of this thing. In Scott's city, you can't see more than a hundred yards because of the smoke. In my city, you can clearly see the fire's progress along the top of the hills above my home. I'm not sure which is more unnerving. Boon |
