    Light a fire for a man, and he'll be warm for a day, light a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life...

    The pre-evacuation order went to a four mile radius of the peak.
    "Residents close by are asked to stay alert and BE READY to leave if necessary," said a tweet from the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office.
    The Forest Service and North Fork Fire Department are responding, officials said.
    A helicopter is already above the fire to drop water, officials said.
    Looks like they got their link fixed...

    Lol Tfogger, the only thing I can think of now is "We need a new movie genre: Zombie fires!"

    Damn it! this is my primary fly fishing area I drive by Scraggy to get to Deckers and the upstream fishing areas. Man, we need rain bad.
    Mom's comin' 'round to put it back the way it ought to be.

    Anyone that thinks war is good is ignorant. Anyone that thinks war isn't needed is stupid.

    We just got some for a bit, but it didn't last long... We need some good, non-electrical, sustained rain for about 4 hours just to soak everything nice and good.
