There isn't "the" TFR. There are hundreds of new ones, and thousands
of pilots have been affected by them.

Huh? Any idea where Denver, Salt Lake and Boise are?


I'll repeat it for you: Fire TFRs are hardly *ever* in the midst of
complicated airspace, Exceptions don't prove the rule.

They go into the tens of thousands of feet.
Most are 5 mile radius because the fire is small. Many get to hundreds
of square miles.


Again, these are exceptions, and are no different now than they were
pre 9-11. What's your point? That there are lots of fire TFRs?
There are lots of clouds, too. What has either to do with the
thousands of security TFR violations that have happened since 9-11?

Again, are you seriously positing that we have as much freedom today
as we had on 9-10-01? I guess all those people at the AOPA annual
meetings are all worked up for nothing?
