    Great video Jim. Love the maps and drone shots. People forget pretty quickly. 2003, 2007, 2014. We could easily become next year’s NorCal fire disaster.

    Whatever happened to your drone?

    Was just saying to a friend about this, we’re lucky the earth isn’t sentient. If it was, and it didn’t want us here, we’d be gone faster than we can blink. So it’s a GREAT thing that the earth doesn’t care about us. Could you imagine a moral earth? That would literally be hell on earth for us, if earth wanted to have fun learning us, at our expense.

    If I were earth, I’d start popping up caustic water geysers all along PCH in Malibu. Hot tubs for everybody! San Francisco would get earthquakes every Sunday. Big ones, little ones. Keep ’em guessing. Fire tornados for the Hollywood Hills. Rat invasions at Zuckerberg’s mansion. Yay! More Facebook friends. I’d open up the ozone and let the gamma ray’s give the Saudi’s get a nice tan. I could happily spend eternity just coming up with new ideas to keep humanity jumping.

    So it’s a great thing, the earth not caring what happens to us, all in all.
    It’s one of it’s big features. Thank fortune every day that this is true.

    With that in mind, it’s not going to save our behind. It’s not going to show mercy. Hope is for crybabies, and people who enjoy life under furniture in the fetal position. The earth teaches nothing but raw physics, if we pay attention–or not–it doesn’t care.

    Some of those who fall asleep during earth’s classes… lose their house.
    That’s steep tuition.

    Charles Schultz’ house is now rubble. His kids had to pick up his elderly widow at 2 am. and flee. They left a ton of irreplacable Peanuts memorabilia to be incinerated. Not to be mean, but I think they could have afforded the installation of foam applicator, instead of banking on hope. They’re only around 10-15K. It’s a building tax write-off, but… they didn’t.

    The earth is math. Earth and math… don’t care.

    Folks who don’t internalize that are going to be crying, sooner or later.
