    These balloon companies NEED TO BE STOPPED. I live in Carmel Valley, and this is the THIRD crash in 5 years - it's just a matter of time before balloon riders and the unsuspecting residents below burst into flames from the next crash. I'd like our politicians to ban these balloon companies from flying above residential areas. Thank you.
