It would be easy for immensely wealthy places like California to build entire neighborhoods or cities impervious to wildfires. But of course they won't. However as an experiment it would be interesting if California could allow a single street to be built using traditional earthquake and fire-proof building methods: thick walls of earth, no gutters to collect flammable debris, windows and doors that can be easily sealed with wet clay and shuttered to not shatter from heat, and tiled roofs that won't catch fires from embers. Like the Japanese Kura storehouses. A system of neighborhood covering sprinklers would also be extremely efficient and not even require a new type of homes. Fire season is coming. As usual.

"The Gettysburg speech was at once the shortest and the most famous oration in American history…the highest emotion reduced to a few poetical phrases. Lincoln himself never even remotely approached it. It is genuinely stupendous.
But let us not forget that it is poetry, not logic; beauty, not sense.
Think of the argument in it. Put it into the cold words of everyday. The doctrine is simply this: that the Union soldiers who died at Gettysburg sacrificed their lives to the cause of self-determination — that government of the people, by the people, for the people, should not perish from the earth.
It is difficult to imagine anything more untrue.
The Union soldiers in the battle actually fought against self-determination; it was the Confederates who fought for the right of their people to govern themselves."
- H. L. Mencken
