        WHAT? !!!?!!!

        Tell that to the families of the 10 people who 
        were buried over the weekend after a 
        Flash Flood out by Payson, AZ.  Or, the
        17 people that had to be helicopter
        air-lifted from the Tanque Verde Falls
        this past weekend. 

        We OFTEN see walls of water from 3-5
        feet rolling through washes, roads, canyons
        after a downpour. 

        I will refrain from saying anything more
        in this forum, but with all the titles in
        your .sig ... PLEASE ask around. Maybe
        you haven't been in the West very long.
        
        thanks
