It's to be hoped

California is pretty big on changing building codes in history.

Let us hope that they don't focus on this water issue - why? because

No 'water system in the world' could have handled the LA fires



and that's probably correct.

What should be the focus is for rebuilding -------- build houses that don't burn

it's not 'that' difficult

Masonry
no flammable plants in the garden
fire retardant or resistant gardens
sealed roofs
fire shutters on windows
fire doors for external doors

it is NOT that hard when you build from scratch - and there's a LOT of building from scratch to do.


It's also to be hoped that Oz might learn some lessons ------- but, that's a really big stretch
