Thanks for looking- I think we have a chance to "get everybody's attention" ( like the old mule story ) and take a close look at where extremists in the eco-movement are trying to take all of us.

Some good news this morning - Sheriff Owens has received contact from New York regarding the Florence fire. A group from Agness went to there help post September 11. Now maybe we'll get some national coverage. No details yet.

Brookings fire chief Bill Sharp reported minimal fire activity yesterday, mainly in the Quail prairie and Boulder creek areas. Sharp said there are a lot of roads outside the wilderness area and they have been tied together to make firebreaks and firelines.

The Florence fire has been renamed, is now the Biscuit fire. The City of Florence apparently objected to the name.

Still only pre-evac notices. KURY radio reported this morning some Gasquet residents had declined to leave their homes. I'm hearing it will be much the same at Agness.

Thanks for all of this news.

This was very interesting: The Florence fire has been renamed, is now the Biscuit fire. The City of Florence apparently objected to the name.

The Druid eco fascists named it the Florence Fire so people would not realize that the fire was really the former Kalmiopsis Wilderness.

Calling it the Florence Fire had to hurt the tourist business in the critical month of August for the businesses in Florence.

Good for the people in Florence in getting the Floristry Circus PR Clowns to stop calling it the Florence Fire.

Still no acknowledgement in the news that continual lawsuits by the environmentalists have blocked ANY fire-prevention, and so have created the necessary conditions for these hot, unmanageable fires.

No acknowledgement that the environmentalists lawsuits and Democrat federal forestry policies are directly responsible for the thousands of acres of scorched, dead earth and black stumps of trees, not to mention the deaths of firefighters and threat to people's homes and property.

People watching the news elsewhere in the country are under the impression that lightning-caused fires are 'natural' and 'good for the forests'. They have no idea, because evidently the mainstream media is censoring this information, that the environmentalists and Democrats have stupidly set us up for NO forests, NO spotted owls, leaving us with erosion-vulnerable acres and black stumps.

Because the environmentalists and the Democrats don't care about forests, trees or the wildlife. All they care about is taking control of OUR public and private property. All they care about is controlling OUR lives and choices. To hell with the trees. Too bad if we don't like it.

Thanks for looking, and your reply #26 was so good I made a direct link to it in my next mass email. It will get seen.

You might want to go to this link and then save in on your computer or server. It will probably disappear like the original site for the Florence Fire is now gone. You can't even access it for past reports, and there have been no updates since about 8/7.

This Link tells how these Druid Green Jihadists view lightening as a good fire and a good thing.

This entire fire has been set up and made ready over the decades of the Druid Green Jihadists Good Fire Agendas coupled with no roads, no timber removal and no brush removal.

These agendas made the former Kalmiopsis Wilderness an explodable/inflamable tinder box waiting for the right good fire. Well it happened and the Kalmiopsis Wilderness is burnt up.

Here is the link that every conservative in Oregon needs to go to and then copy the data on their computer before BiG Floristry Circus Clowns remove this site. (Link to the Official burn it all down Green Jihadists Strategy for the Former Kalmiopsis Wilderness Area)

Ooops, I forgot to ping you on my reply #29. This link tells us all about how this fire is a direct result of the Green Jihadists's strategy for the former Kalmiopsis Wilderness area: (Link to the Official burn it all down Green Jihadists Strategy for the Former Kalmiopsis Wilderness Area)

You might want to save this on your computer or another server in its entirety. I believe that it too will disappear as other paper/electronic trails are disappearing with these fires.

Thanks for all the great work you do for us!

"Calling it the Florence Fire had to hurt the tourist business in the critical month of August for the businesses in Florence."

It did hurt tourist business. I saw a piece on the local news about this. The business owners were furious.

Keep posting what is happening as I will probably be off the boards until tomorrow sometime.

Our grandkids and DIL are returning from a two week vacation on the Jersey Shore. We are picking them up at the airport. So I have to get the Bronco deloused, cleaned out of fly fishing gear and ready for car seats for babies and two women.

These are the only 3 people in the world that I will go to SFO to meet, my grandkids and my DIL!

Granof8, see if you can find out the Floristry Circus Clown site that has the current data on the fire, whatever its name is today.

I think that we are seeing a whole of Hillerizing of web sites and smoking forest data and will see a whole lot more.

If anyone finds some great data that has not been electronically deleted, please save it to your own computer. Save the whole file/files as the url is worthless if they cancel it or remove the file from the url.

Take care and I will catch up whenever.

Post that news if you can find the link re the Florence loss of business due to the Florist Circus Clowns calling it the Florence Fire to misled us from knowing that it was really what used to be the Kalmiopsis fire.

Out of here!:)
