house fire smells very different from brush fire
my sleeping bag still smells like my house burning down in college
How much is each fire costing in damages?
I know the power lines are not the sole cause but they seem significant.
Especially in California. The Church of St. Greta will only be happy if humans left the state or returned to Pomo levels of progress
doubt it's the best option.
Micro grids + more weather stations around power lines to build up to data on figuring precise power shut downs in targeted areas. San Diego is the model. took them almost 10 years to get to that point after the '09 fires. would probably cost less than barring lines too and then the cost of maintaining underground lines. still micro grids will cost $'s and there's not enough skilled labor to do it quickly.
Sounded more like a desperate attempt to get in your talking points for the day to be honest.
Looks more like a desperate attempt from you to spin a post that was simply concurring with how high the price to make an infrastructure change in California would be
Please elaborate what you think I meant or what the "talking points" would be
PG&E is bankrupt. They’d be lucky to break ground in the next ten years due to the same reasons you gave. And then there’s the funding. How’s the proposition for the gas tax working?

got to agree Gavin ain't doing a good job on this one. There's still the $16 billion rainy day fund that's never been used
That's one option.
There could be others when/if it is prioritized.
Currently the model of building cheap and maximizing profits, then paying settlements later, doesn't seem to be working well (ie filing for bankruptcy in advance).
