Chris,

You are not (have not been) getting mail.  Your subscription
to MSAR-Riders is unchanged, which indicates e-mail from the
list to you has not been bouncing back to the list server.
But it may have "fallen out of the pipe" somewhere between 
your local e-mail server and you.  Talk to customer support
at bbv.net.

We are all very interested!  Your wildfires have been a major
topic of conversation locally.  Our forests are decimated by
drought and the pinon bark beetle.  We have ponderosas, and
their bark beetles too, but the mass mortality is among the
pinons.  Unfortunately, most of the dead trees are on heavily
protected lands, where management to prevent fires is a big
political problem.
