OK, now that things are starting to die down a little with the LA fires (at least, I hope they will have), let's take a step back and have a long, hard, serious look at this issue. We will look at the politics behind the fires, but also at the ecology, geography and climate in this region of California. Rather than point fingers and scream, let's look at how and why these fires happen and how they could have been made less severe, but could not be prevented. We hope you'll join us.
