You would think that people would get the message: Don't build a house on a hillside in a place where you stand a good liklihood of sliding downhill or getting burned out. Fire is a natural part of things. The more you try to prevent them from happening, the worse they will be when they do happen. Makes no sense. And people are surpised by it every time. Duh.

I saw one today in the reports, about 900 acres, and they had over 900 people on it. Jogeephus, wonder what it cost for the ones in your area a couple of years ago. Almost a million acres for all of them I think.
