Another wood burning ban

[EXCALIBER]

I was going to reply to that guys post too but I thought about it and decided not to.

He's from 'Western Nebraska' and I didn't think I could use enough small and simple words for him to be able to understand my post. That's my fault...I can't communicate well using just grunts and gestures.

I thought about just using emoticons but I didn't know if he had anybody there to explain them to him. I didn't want him to think we'd sent him a cartoon and get all embarrassed when somebody told him what all the little symbols really meant.

I guess if he wants to hunt Californians he can come out here...or try to. Is Greyhound still offering special fares for the sociologically challenged? Are the border guards still giving IQ tests prior to admittance and do the IQ results still have to be 5 points higher than the outside air temperature? It's winter time...maybe he'll be okay. Are people with more tattoos than teeth still being disqualified?

Let me know...there may be others.

Ok I retract what I said earlier. Clearly we do not need to hunt California's. Heck you could get rid of half of em with just a scratch and sniff sticker in the bottom of the pool, and you don't have to get you hands dirty. Then that would just leave the military personal.

I just checked the weather forecast for my local area in Northern Calif and saw this Air Quality Alert, thought it was relevant to this discussion:
