[quote=Anonymous]1. People need to respect nature.  It's the land - you can't have a zillion rich people build up in places like these with Santa Ana winds, drought conditions, limited water supplies.  Duh. There is only so much you can do to fight nature.  Nature wins EVERY time.  EVERY EVERY EVERY time. See hurricanes, earthquakes, et al.

2. People don't understand that wildfires to some extent are nature's way of regenerating themselves.  If you are there - that is sad for you.

3. You can (I know human nature is too stupid) rebuild there but I don't know if any business sensible organization ie ordinary insurance co. will will work with you.  So anyone who does does at their own risk, as well as they should incur that risk - nobody else, ie rest of people who should not have their premiums raised.

4. There's simply too many people is all.  Not enough land.  It's not just global warming.  Maybe some of the time it can be related to climate changing setting off the spark for these tragedies but not every time.  People need to stop blaming global warming for every damn thing.  While I think we definitely damage the planet, we do it by stuff like this.  We don't respect the land at all.  We build, rebuild, pollute, think we can fight nature and have exactly what we want by spending enough tech/money on it.  We can't.  We do what we can to survive.  There's a point where greed doesn't dominate.  Not sure what the answer is except that you have to be prepared for these things if you live in those parts.  Not sure why it's this huge surprise.  Kinda like FL - if you choose to live where wildfires, hurricanes have happened, guess what will happen consistently? You can do it but you have to manage expectations.[/quote]
