Police Suspect Arson at Six Alabama Churches - New York Times:

CENTREVILLLE, Ala. (AP) -- The FBI is investigating a string of suspected arson fires that damaged five rural Alabama churches late Thursday and early Friday.

The fires were set ''as fast as they could drive from one location to the next,'' Bibb County Chief Deputy Sheriff Kenneth Weems said of the cluster of blazes, all near U.S. 82 and Highway 139.

Most of the churches were Baptist and all were in Bibb County, about 25 miles south of Birmingham.

Wow. I think I'm in some kind of time warp. Just yesterday I found it was really 1984, and now I've somehow ended up in 1959. How long will it take to reach 1917?
