And their head honcho said he wasn't worried about flooding. I hung up the phone, turned to my boss and said, "He says they aren't worried... I guess that means we'll be out there later this week doing flood stories."

1. Did you talk to the guy quoted in the article?
And not worried? Where did they think all that snow and rain was going to go?

4. I heard there were mudslides around Hope
Didn't bury the town did it?

I mean how many Canadian towns can claim to be the place where a Reagan era action movie franchise started?

(That would be "First Blood" the original Rambo movie. I recognized the scenery immediately, having been in BC for a while the summer before it was released. )
