1 Luc Jousse, the mayor of Roque-Sur-Argens, called the fires "a new form of terrorism." President Jacques Chirac threatened those responsible with "sanctions of an extraordinary gravity."

Ooooooooooooooo! Chiraq's statement will put fear into the Al-Q cells. I can see them now ditching their incendiary junk bags and making reservations for flights back to ___________ [ME location] and using ______________[fill in nation] passports. Fill in the blanks.

2 Unfortunately, things are pretty dry in the western US after several years of drought. Sigh.

7 M4D, don't slap a tree. The birch never did anything to you and the bark was very helpful to Native Americans.

8 Ironically, all those forest fires are gonna put a huge damper on global warming. One measley fire in Canada a couple years ago cooled off the entire northeast in the dead of summer.

11 --2. attacks on U.S. oil refineries;--

Well, W just might have to declare a state of emergency and waive all those summer requirements which cause us to have 95 different blends of gas. We'd just have to deal w/it for one season.

We're already going into ANWR sideways.

13 Wasn't it about this time last year that they were going to attack "the big refinery in Texas"?

14 Hmmmm. Maybe fight fire with fire. Dump several thousand tons of napalm into South Waziristan the first time we have proof of a terror-started wildfire. Hit North Waziristan if there's a second attempt. Hit downtown Damascus if there's a third. Think they'll get the hint????

21 I agree Mike S.

Secure the borders now. INS should be locating all expired visas w/a vengeance and all students over *25. Methinks mass deportations are in order.
