A celebrity is one who is known to many people he is glad he doesn't know.
CalFire bungle
I am not far from Mr. Hawkins home and suffered similar damage. Very thankful it was not worse. It took me a while to find information that comments on the CalFire bungle.
Seems after a few days, we are back to wondering what Brittany Spears is up to. The head of CalFire gave several interviews and really could not give straight answers.
Could not put helicopters in the air because of wind. Except the two that were working. Could not use military assets because there were no spotters. Except two that were working and 5 that were never called. What happened to the Canadian fire plane that was held for two days at Lake Elsinore for customs?
All of the homes I saw burned to the ground in my neighborhood were due to embers that could have been put out with a garden house. The vegetation around the homes were untouched. How many people will voluntarily evacuate when they know their homes will not be protected and they will be prevented from returning for no good reason?
4 years ago they promised this would not happen again.
