To all those who are thinking the way these foremost postings read: THANK YOU. The researched, educated, free-thinking readers here have made countless valid points.
To OPB and Christian: PLEASE STOP TRYING TO LINK MY BROTHER TO ANYTHING RELATED TO THE FIRES IN SEATTLE.

Readers/listeners are absolutely onto something deliberate on the part of the "news" here and throughout much coverage all over this town...the unfortunate fires in Seattle could not be more IRRELEVANT to my brother's situation.
