How for decades LA has been a reactive city and how the fires are no exception - AND nothing new. How we are reactive in our own daily lives and the reminder to be proactive. How we trip over the same extension cords, everyday, and the need for vigilance against that. How charities use donations for administrative costs and the best place and means to donate.
