West Coast Wildfires
The sheer arrogance of the article about California's fires was astounding. So we should not live in fire-prone areas? Perhaps people in New England shouldn't live in snow-prone areas, people in the Midwest shouldn't live in tornado-prone areas, and people in the Southeast shouldn't live in hurricane-prone areas. Storms in other parts of the U.S. cause far more deaths, injuries and economic losses each year than do the relatively infrequent major fires in California. Perhaps you can suggest a spot on the planet where we can all live free of risk.
