#12 more firebreaks would help but a lot of this is because people have moved into rural areas that are difficult to protect, e.g., the two biggest fires currently are just east of the coastal range |

#11 And for the bigger stuff you cannot haul out....We used this one to generate 21 tons of chips an hour for a chip fired heating plant. |

#9 You're not wrong gorb. That fuel can either be cut out or burned out. One way or the other, it's going to be removed. CA has chosen poorly. |

#7 ^^I'm surprised the Coastal Commission even allows the firefighters to dig trench fire breaks. |

#6 I think it's more a problem with the enviroweenies who won't allow clearing underbrush or controlled burns. |

#5 Can't have silly things like forest management and power generation interfere with that high speed rail project, can we? |

#4 California Gov. Urges Residents to Flee.... California's government has been indirectly "urging" residents to leave the state for over a decade. The tragic fires have simply upped the ante. |

#2 I'm going to guess that the government in CA didn't learn their lesson about forest fire management measures last time and instead poured that money into illegals. Am I wrong? |

#1 I'm currently in Wallbridge Fire Evac Warning Zone. Next 24 hrs are important. Air attack did fantastic work today and may have turned the tie in our area. |
