“California is pretty much desert when you get right down to it. Much of the brush actually contains oil such as creosote because the dry conditions preclude them retaining water. So, when the environment is dry and the winds are blowing any little spark can set off a fire. I was born and raised in Southern California, and fires were an annual thing.”
Somehow you gotta know the criminal California government is complicit with some pc laws against periodic clearing of brush, controlled burns, or any other rational fire prevention activities.
I dont understand why they dont systematically clear brush and/or make very wide fireroads crisscrossing these wide areas. I wonder if anyone is working on a remote control 4 engine 20,000 gallon water cannon equipped drone helicopter to fly in areas where it is more dangerous to fly with people. Or something like that...
Yep, a winner! That goes for the left coast, period.
