Yeah, too many rich people in California for this to get ignored.

Apparently they've had to stop filming 24 because of the fires. Our company has an office in Irvine (close to L.A.), apparently it's pretty hairy

They might start to take climate change seriously.

It's Al-Qaeda, dude! From Fox News:

Transcript:

DOOCY: You’re looking live at pictures from San Diego — Santiago, CA, where the wildfires continue. We were talking earlier in today’s telecast with Adam Housley and apparently police officers in a hovering helicopter saw a guy starting one of these fires. And Allison Allison Camerota, an FBI memo from late in June of this year is popping up this morning and it is ominous.

CAMEROTA: This actually has happened for many years in the past as well. An FBI sent out to local law-enforcement said that an al Qaeda detainee had given them some information that the next wave of terrorism could be in the form of setting wild fires. Adam Housley said lots of people on his block were asking him about it. Obviously this is something the FBI has looked into. They will continue to investigate it.

CARLSON: If they have this person in custody it probably won’t take long to be able to develop a link if there is one.

KILMEADE: A June 25 memo from the FBI’s Denver offices reported three days ago, excuse me, five days ago, by the Arizona Republic, that is a newspaper, they have been carrying the story and they continue to expand upon it.

DOOCY: Brian, the plot they say, according to this detainee, and they don’t know if the detainee is telling the truth. The plot was to set three or four wildfires. But they don’t mention California. They mention Colorado, Montana, Utah, and Wyoming. We do know for a fact that a number of the fires in southern California are of a suspicious nature and they are investigating arson.
link, with video

Comparisons to Katrina were inevitable once they started packing people into Quaalcom Stadium. Biggest difference, though, is that it is still easy to move around. The roads aren't destroyed or flooded out, so people and supplies can move around at will. But that won't stop the 'we learned our lessons' storyline from gaining traction.

Since these Cali bonfires are an annual spectacle on the TV, you'd think they'd have figured out a better way to fight them by now. You're spending a billion every year on property damage and firefighting, so maybe it's worth it to work on prevention and save a few bucks down the line?
