Someone is concocting a bullshit story here. [/quote] Nah... That's impossible in Conspiracy World... [/quote] Well FEMA came today (or yesterday, not exactly sure) to asses the damage. I'm in Austin, by the way. So, since they'll now be paying for a lot of the relief efforts, I wonder if that effects their control of the situation? Regardless, we need all the firefighters we can get. The massive fire in Bastrop is only 20% contained by this point in time. [b]And little random fires keep popping up for no reason, even in my neck of the woods - brush fires with no explanation. This event over the weekend is followed up by wildfires from earlier in the summer, too, it's really out of control. My brother's a firefighter, so I plan to pick his brain about all of this later on.[/b] [/quote] Be Safe...and best of luck to you and yours. [/quote] Thanks so much! I have a good feeling about our neighborhood, the fires so far have been far enough away for comfort ... but until this state gets some rain, the threat will always be there! Nuts! Anyways, appreciate the good GLP vibes. : ) [/quote]
Original Message
In an outrageous repeat of Katrina, the federal government has moved into wildfire-stricken Texas and turned away firefighting trained volunteers who had converged on Bastrop and Smithville to combat the out of control flames.
According to The Gonzales Cannon, federal officials arrived at the scene and assumed command of the operation under the pretense “local officials never made a formal request for volunteers.”
