Good to hear!

Except for the homes lost and the guy losing the cars... During the fire
near Bastrop (east of Austin) in September, they interviewed a guy who had
lost more than twenty... yeah, 20.... classic cars. GTO's, 'vettes,
Mustangs, etc. He was pretty pragmatic about it... Said he and his family
were safe... They were just cars.
But you could tell he certainly wasn't happy about it...
Nor would any of us, I'm sure.

Regards,
Kirby
