Holy #$@#! -- This is my aunt's cabin at Tweedy, photograph from this weekend (published in the LA Times):



I think that cabin was saved. Word has it that the Ransom cabin was saved only because of luck and timing -- dawn came and the water-dropping helocopters extinguished the blaze only 250 FEET from the cabin!

Today I came south on I-5 from a trip to Berkeley, and we could see the flames in the distance...

I'm really just waiting until the terrorists figure out that burning down national forests is a really simple way to cause extreme havoc and destruction - much more so than crashing planes into things, and oftentimes, nearly as effective.
