The dinosaurs were not extinct, they just were dedicated to genetic survival and they had adapted to appear both necessary, cute and harmless to humans. Now all they had to do was watch and see what we did. Maybe someday they would have the evolutionary wit to dominate the planet.

"And while 2.1 million #NorthCarolina homes are in the #WildlandUrbanInterface, North Carolinians have relatively little experience with #wildfires, he noted.

“The combination of #WUI and a ‘fire naive’ population could potentially cause major loss of human life in the eastern U.S., similar to what we’ve seen now in #Hawaii and previously in California,” Scheller said."

Winston-Salem JournalHawaii fires a cue to 'start expecting the unexpected,' even in TriadWhile the death toll from Hawaiian wildfires climbs, grief-stricken officials there have hit on a pair of common themes as they try to process the disaster.

“Today, more than a third of American #homes and more than half of Canadian homes are located in the #WUI. It is a beautiful place to live, until it goes #feral. When a #wildfire enters a residential community, the result—for the fire—is a smorgasbord of kiln-dried #fuel topped with tar shingles, garnished with rubber #tires and #gas tanks.”
