I'm not saying that the overhead at the Forest Service/BLM/other major agencies are in callous disregard of human life. But for decades, the imprint has been "we put the fire out with crews of trained people on the ground."
That archetype is no longer valid for the reasons given above. We need to find a new, safer archetype.
Thanks for listening and for your comments.
