SelectPlusRaw Video: Big Sur Blaze Hard to ContainRaw Video: Big Sur Blaze Hard to ContainThe Associated PressFire officials say fog and humidity helped them gain ground on a blaze in the Los Padres National Forest that was just 3 percent contained and had blackened nearly 62 square miles near the storied town of Big Sur. (July 1)This video contains ONLY natural sound. No script is available.
this isnt the Marble Cone fire is it ? the last bad fire had so many lighting strikes the entire state was burning it seemed like, fire fighters never had a chance, the the sheriff was arresting anyone who stayed that ventured out to help his neighbors. Kenny Wright was livid and understandably so. the CDF wouldnt let the locals who knew the terrain help it was amazing it never crossed the HWY to the west side. to anyone who was there CDF crews, local you had an impossible job.

But man, it has some of THE most expensive gasoline in the world. Don't leave Monterrey with an empty tank. A full dollar higher than cities to the south and north it per gallon

The fire departments are equiped with no more than water and garden hoses against fires of this magnitude.
with afleet of 747 size planes a fire like this can be put out in hours.
and if suposedly intelligent people stoped build junk disposable houses and build them fireproof and equipped in a way that they never have to leave them in any weather event, any little fire like this would never be an issue.

Cut the woods down, build some cities with skyscrapers and the problem is solved.

I lived in Big Sur during the lightning storm that led to this HUGE fire. It was actually more than 11 fires that merged together and scared the SHIT outta everyone there. People lost thier homes for MILES.
Everyone who visits LOVES Big Sur...I am a huge fan.

thats what it is.. god, mad at gay people in california so he burns down one of the least populated areas in the state, that probably has more god fearing rednecks than man loving gays. and i bet he is going to strike me down for saying he doesnt exist in this email too. get a brain you morons. you think your country rules the world. you are the poorest nation on the face of the planet because of your wide spread ignorance and faith in religion. just got back from big sur, beautiful place.
