Hello and welcome to Mac Power Users. My name is Stephen Hackett. I'm joined by my friend and yours, Mr David Sparks.

Hey Stephen, how are you today? I'm good. It's Apple Event Week. That's always fun.

Yeah, it's been very exciting around here.

We got to watch the Apple Event and then the airport fire in California was down the street for me.

So it's just been a wild ride for me the last couple of days.

Yeah, I'm glad you all are right.

All are right.

Yeah, can I just say real quick, you know, it's very popular to say that

everything's broken but with watching the way the California wildfire

professionals, you know, fire response, safety police,

handled this thing. They are extremely competent, you know, and it's like it was interesting to me because so we had a fire break out very close to the house but a wildfire but

those guys came in and from the very beginning they said this is what we're going to do, this is how we're going to manage it.

You know, there's three wildfires going on in Southern California now. They didn't have unlimited assets.

They said with what we have, we figured out this is the way to protect all the structures.

And the plan went out exactly according to plan.

Just like exactly what they said they would do,

they did, and everybody's safe.

Nothing burned down and it's nice to see that level of

competence and professionalism. Yeah, those folks know what they're doing.

That's really good. Yeah, I'd

I'd argue that we have some of the best wildfire professionals in the world here because you know we have a lot of them,

but it's just it's just it's nice to get reminded of public servants that do amazing work.
