Thanks Jim, I just spent two hours watching Jack Ryan and Marco Ramius (The Villinius Schoolmaster) . At least I grabbed the DVD and not the hardcover print version

Now I am looking for my copy of Hopscotch with Walter Matthau to enjoy the Oktoberfest scene in the opening.

I have The Hunt For Red October on DVD, but not the other one you mentioned. Good movie. Personally, I don't drink but what else would you call October? Spooktober? LOL

Just found out about it this morning. There are really some sick people in this world to do something like that. Prayers go out to all involved.

We have friends up there that we just visited with last weekend. We checked with them this morning and they are "OK" for now. They are worried about any wind shifts, as they are not terribly far from the conflagration.

What a horrible series of fires. I can't believe the Tubbs fire has grown to 35,000 acres in 12 hours. Conservative estimates place the number of homes and businesses lost at 1500+ . I can see this taking 10k more homes if the wind keeps up.
