This is amazing:

Currently 53 fires are burning in Alaska. So far this year the Alaska Interagency Coordination Center reports 521 fires statewide have burned 1,360,000 acres.

The news black out on this has been amazing. 1,360,000 acres is 2125 square miles.

Club Sierra doesn't want any drilling for oil to reduce our dependence on Opecker Oil, but it is okay for their fire agenda burns to happen.

Also, according to that site I linked you yesterday all of the fires in Alaska are 0% contained.

Oh yah, and good morning, thanks for the updated, pings, commentary, and general cheery disposition!

This would be great on the "Below the Fold" portion of Special Report with Brit Hume.

I still wonder what all those FEMA guys were doing exploring all over Alaska a couple of weeks ago. It was no secret by the way, they had badges and jackets with big letters FEMA across the back. They looked more like Secret Service types to me somehow. I was around when they were renting vehicles. They were going all over the state, to every nook and cranny. There were 14 of them in our town.
