#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.
