Currently, the city in which i live is the closest thing to an inferno you'll ever see or hear about.

30 thousand of 100 thousand residents of the town are currently on evacuation orders (NOTE: not alert, but ORDER). Fortunately for me, i'm not even on alert yet. But the danger is real. It's a yellowing thought and it really drags me back to reality. The sky is red. Ash has been falling for 3 days. Homes are being destroyed.

Please tell me what you think about this. Remember: I never thought it could happen here. Now it has.

If you want more info on the fire, look <a href="http://www.castanet.net" target="_blank">HERE</a>

BTW the town is Kelowna, Canada.

Things have gone from bad to worse. Cellphones are now the only phones that work.

Yea. Look out once in a while. It would be a bummer that you would leave a bit too late because you played neocron a bit too long. :)

Just kidding, but seriously - take care.
