RIVERTON, WYOMING - Three children are dead in an early morning mobile home fire just outside Riverton. Fremont County Coroner Ed McAuslan says the children were 1, 2 and 3 years old. Their names were not immediately released.

The fire was reported at 6:12 a.m. Thursday. When emergency responders arrived, the home was already engulfed in flames. With help from neighbors, there were able to pull one of the children who died out. The other two couldn't be found until the fire had been put out.

One adult woman was also flown to burn center in another state. Her condition was not available. The cause of the fire is under investigation. Police say at least two families lived in the home, but they were still trying to determine how many were inside and their relationship.

The "neighbours" thing is kind of misleading -- my cousin was the one helping out. He saved a few people before fire crews got there. He's okay, physically.

Poor kids, though.

Wow, your cousin deserves a big high five.

That's really sad. Keep me up to date on this, will you? I want to know the cause.

You walk into this room at your own risk, because it leads to the future, not a future that will be but one that might be. This is not a new world, it is simply an extension of what began in the old one. It has patterned itself after every dictator who has ever planted the ripping imprint of a boot on the pages of history since the beginning of time. It has refinements, technological advances, and a more sophisticated approach to the destruction of human freedom. But like every one of the super states that preceded it, it has one iron rule: logic is an enemy and truth is a menace.
