Re: [IRCA] Latest from Mount Wilson
KNBC aired another live report from directly behind all of the Mt. Wilson
towers. The reporter and others that could be seen in the background seem to
be OK with being up there. KNBC does not have its act together. The NBC
network anchor Brian Williams is there and they were interviewing him live.
At one point during the interview they were supposed to switch to an
interview with some pilots at nearby Whiteman Airport. The interview wasn't
ready and he just stood there silent for about thirty seconds with a look on
his face like he was looking for a hole to crawl into. He's doing a live
western edition of the network news. Somebody botched the transition between
the end of KNBC's news coverage and the network news.
KCAL-9 is going to have the Dodger game instead of fire coverage.
Regarding the convention I'm supposed to arrive in Albuquerque at 6:18 PM
Mountain time on Thursday. I don't know how long getting my rental car and
getting into my room will take. If others are getting there on Thursday
maybe we could meet for dinner. If you're interested please write me
directly or call me on Thursday at (805) 455-7116; my cell number. My flight
is supposed to leave LAX at 3:30 Pacific time. I won't be able to receive
calls between then and my arrival in Albuquerque.
I am really looking forward to the convention. Thanks to Mike Sanburn for
all of his hard work.

If you want to see something really remarkable, watch the webstream from
Fox 11 in LA (myfoxla.com) at about 8:15 PM EDT/5:15 PM PDT, as the Martin
Mars tanker plane carrying 7200 gallons of water comes around to make
another targeted drop on Mount Wilson. Amazing stuff.
The plane made its first drop there at about 7:15 PM EDT.
