Vague memories of some screwball plan to get to bed early, and do chores before dawn. That is so not gonna happen. Oh well. Now, bed.
@sdreinhart1975 Agreed. Bozos. Surprisingly large and complex site (60,000+ members, too?) for such a piece of junk.
@Karoli Good luck to your brother.
@ilovetypography Copy the character from somewhere else, and paste it in. (Sucks, but it should work.)
@nateritter Not bad. Saw that earlier today. Add burned area, active areas, and direction (toward homes?), and you'll really have something.
@nateritter Coordinate requests & assistance. People need tents, cots. Animals need hay, water, etc. Many not at "official" shelters.
@nateritter Mapping input from the news copters. They are in the air, looking right at the fire, but spending 20 mins watching a house burn.
@nateritter Awesome. :-) I'll shoot you any ideas I have. You know where your delete key is. ;-)
@nateritter Don't underestimate the ability of locals to understand good info. Lots of CERT folks, lots of experienced long-time residents.
@nateritter Good job. Still seeing only "fire here" icons on maps. No perimeters, directions, speeds... Surf reports have more information.
@WalkingHorse At least we could still drive to Home Depot for shovels or 7/11 for coffee. Neighborhoods demolished, not whole cities.
@WalkingHorse The biggest "trauma" about fires was realizing that firefighters & media, were totally overwhelmed, and we were on our own.
@schwarzwald Yeah. Missy brought us 4 "presents" in 5 days recently. Woke us up, meowmeowmeowing. Delivered one right to the bed. Awww...
@WalkingHorse It was an adventure. But even what we personally experienced in the Cedar Fire just amounted to an enormous inconvenience.
@WalkingHorse Be sure to check out the "Interactive Maps" on ABC7.com. L.A. is an enormous place. Where is your son?
Good toast, slathered with butter, is delicious out of all proportion with its ingredients.
@Rumford 1) Good quality 2) Easy/low-hassle 3) Lets you do something cool 4) Good value 5) From good people.
@WalkingHorse Don't worry, he'll deal & call you later. My parents were with us for this: http://www.lindaeskin.com/l...
