Most of California is a tinderbox. In late summer, when you walk in brush or in the woods, the ground 'cracks' as you walk - from dry sticks and pine needles. California burns every year. Fires have started from car exhaust pipes, people dropping a cigarette, knocking over a camping gas stove, etc. The solution isn't to ban "camping gas stoves" - the solution is to have fire breaks BEFORE the fire. Fires get out of control in California because of it's massive size and fuel source. Why do people blame PG&E? Would we all feel better if it was a kid playing with a magnifying glass? The solution is to destroy the main electrical company? We would all be happier if they were government owned electrical lines that caused the fire? I don't follow the logic.
I am sure PG&E will enjoy slashing all their current (and past??) employee retirement benefits. Who wins here?
