My heart goes out to all the people involved in those raging wildfires
around So Cal right now.  My S.O. is  now in Borrego, down near Salton Sea
and says that the mountains east of San Diego are an inferno and that some
250,000 residents near Julian, Ramona, Mt. Laguna, Mt Palomar have been
ordered to evacuate and are showing up down in Borrego Springs at an
improvised evacuation center...Bringing horses, and whatever they
can...hoping for the winds to mellow so the fire crews can make some
progress...This follows a huge fire a few years back....
  A wild fire of that size is not something that really can be 'controlled'
by puny mankind...
