September 24, 201213 yr I saw this video just the other day--can't remember where but I was amazed by what I saw and it brought back a memory of an inferno. I used to live in the Napa Valley, and in 1981 we had an arson caused series of fires scattered over a twelve mile radius that merged in just a few hours to become a near twenty five thousand acre fire. My home was a few miles west of the fire lines (it was never threatened due to the prevailing wind). But I could see what was happening quite clearly, since the fire was at a higher elevation than my home. I literally saw trees and homes explode in the flames and have had that etched in my memory for over thirty years. Although thousands of homes were threatened, the intervention of the forestry and fire departments (and certainly Divine intervention) from all over northern california kept the losses to just under seventy homes, mostly in the vicinity of Silverado Country club. Aviation was at the forefront of that fight--my home was buzzed every few minutes by air tankers as they came in to fight the fire. I remember the sound of their piston engines throbbing in my famly room. In spite of 100+ heat and high winds, the figherfighters beat the fire back that day--amazing given the sheer scope of the fire that had spready over fifty square miles. I remember coming out the next morning to find our cars and property covered in a fine ash, like Mt. St. Helens. The smoke from the fire itself rose past thirty thousand feet, and my brother, who was living in Reno over 150 miles northeast of us, had an ashfall from the fire. Napa has never had a serious fire since. The arsonist, though never caught, is believed to have been identified and was believed to have died some years later. I can only hope he found forgiveness for what he had done and for the personal tragedies that he caused that day. Here's a link to the story of that fire: http://napavalleyreg...a3954dc0ed.html Regards, John
