  • And to top it off, "gruesome newsom" cut their budget by more than 50%,which meant major loss of personnel - - do you think Cali others will get a hint??Β  Probably not, since they were never taught deductive reasoning!

    • June, that 's why it's called the 'land of fruits and nuts."

    • Sure- that 4th sentence should read "do you think Cali VOTERS";Β  I swear that's what I wrote.Β  No no, I know - swearing is not allowed πŸ™„

  • Yep, Cali. is a prime example of climate extremism! Newsom needs to have a clear zone anywhere there is a powering running through unpopulated areas, so if a pole goes down electric lines don't start a fire.Β  Several years ago in the Texas panhandle we had a dry windy spring, a pole went down or lines got together. Anyway started a fire and along with 60-70 M.P.H. winds burned 1000's of acres. Granted mostly grassland. But still a major loss for ranchers and farmers. We now have what I call line stabilizers between poles to keep the lines apart.Β 

  • Is there any politician or appointed official in California that has 1 brain cell in their heads.

    • Martha - it's the voters that need "active" brain cells.

    • I really don't think there isΒ 

  • No, it was not a great gesture.Β  If there was surplus equipment, it should have been given to other fire departments around the country that needed the equipment.Β  We should be taking care of America first, not foreign countries.

    • Yup....America first. We have sooooo many needs!Β 

    • In Our more naive state , at the time, it was a NICE DIPLOMATIC GESTURE.Β  HOWEVER KNOWING WHAT WE DO NOW......i WOULD NOTΒ  have GIVEN THEM EVEN A FIRE EXTINGUISHER.
