5. NPR specifically mentioned a company which does ALL the fire fighting
planes, At least that's the impression I got from the report. The guy spoke UK English, I believe the company is in WA. They did NOT use C130s. I know this plane and would have gotten that from the story. There was talk about C130s in the future. Talk about P3's in the FUTURE. (That's why the report doesn't compliment the WP story.)

It seems the Bush/GOP Family doesn't care if America burns in Hell as long as they're getting their money from oil and defense contractors.
