the wall street journal has an article today about the camp fire girls, which i guess are no longer girls but both.

they are trying to get away from having camp fires because they don't think it's a good idea to be teaching kids about starting them.

they are also going to change their logo so it doesn't look so much like a campfire flame. something more propane-like.

it's all very sad, but it is not hard to imagine that if a kid started a fire, someone would be suing camp fire for teaching them. where does it end?

btw, last night there was camp fire burning unattended nearby the swimming area at harold parker. no belongings around it or anything.

probably kids that went through camp fire, or the even more nefarious boy scouts.
