They must have all migrated West. The CA highways are packed with them. I have never seen so many as I have this last 6 months.

I'm not one of the saps sitting on the railing of the HMS Titanic-like you are. I'm one of the guys who has a lifeboat all to himself and I've got a nice magnum of champange and I'm enjoing the spectre of the ship about to take the plunge bow-first into the deep with all the greedy morons screaming at the top of their lungs. Caviar wishes to you Mininggold!
