Don't trust the Web!

There is a ton of misinformation floating around the Internet right now about the Fallbrook fire. Don't believe it, and please don't spread it. Potter Jr. High has not burned down. Nothing west of Gird Road and Live Oak Park Road burned down, from what I've seen. The fire is pretty much dead south of East Mission Road in Fallbrook, although there are a few hot spots--I just confirmed that with the fire department.

For the most part, you can believe anything you read on nctimes.com. Independent bloggers and sensationalist rumor-spreaders on the Web do not have to be accountable to anyone; a newspaper does, even with the information on its Web site. So, please, don't worry about your house unless it is east of Gird or Live Oak Park Road, or north of East Mission near Red Mountain, and don't let those who say the fire's still raging in Fallbrook concern you. It's not.
