Fire in California
Figure [1]: In Southern California, the forest is burning.

Michael You probably heard it in the news: There was a forest fire in California. However, it wasn't up here in San Francisco, but down in Southern California, more than 400 miles away. Sometimes people forget that California is larger than Germany.

We heard about the fire on the news, and at Yahoo, some employees from Southern California took pictures of burning forests from their bedroom windows. Some Yahoos had to flee their homes and were evacuated. In the meantime, everything has settled down again, the fires have been extinguished, and things are returning to normal.
