Fighting fires

We got our first tornado warnings this morning, before a storm came through that blasted light and sound against my windows. At least we’ve had rain, unlike the folks in Oklahoma and Texas, who are battling some fairly serious plains fires. Too bad these states didn’t get the rain the folks in Northern California received.

Speaking of fires, I appreciate Jeneane passing the Pew Survey torch on to me, but I have little interest in doing more than give a quick cursory glance at the findings. There are others who have written in detail on the report. I would say that the researchers had a hypothesis going in, and then found the data to support it. If they had come out saying “Women prefer purple dots on yellow, while men prefer yellow dots on purple”, they would have found the data to support this, too.

Me, I’m more interested in watching the weather.
