Circumstantial evidence.

Classic example of just running with a Trump Twitter. The kind of strategic, thin from below, logging needed to enhance forest health and make residual forests more likely to be resilient in an increasingly greater wildfire environment are not attractive to commercial logging companies. More federal funding to cover the cost of thinnings is required and supported by "environmental wackos" and the timber industry alike.

The vale (holy Jim vale) is still cooking

I can see it over here in Aliso. Some ominous looking shite. From one direction the sky looks like some Daedre opened up an Oblivion-Gate.

This would scare me to death if I was near the area

cmon bruh, right over your head

Not sure how I feel on this topic. Fire is a part of that ecosystem. When you suppress it, the risk for these type issues increase. Blaming one guy for a failed system is counter productive.
