Wild fires not too many years ago just burned until they ran out of
fuel. Now we have all of
this money spent on containing them so that they don't burn homes and
businesses. Fire should
be treated just like flood waters.

and you called *me* a luddite? :-)

It is amazing that the Earth went from a whirling mass of dust to what it is today and it
still exists. Wildfires serve a purpose, tides and flooding serve a purpose. Who are we to
try and stop them. Why are we trying to control the Earth instead of just inhabitinig it for
the time we have and then disappearing from existence from our own devices or an
extraterestial event.
