    I think because the legislation covers National Parks and State Forests (I believe), and was put in place a number of years ago, and the urban sprawl into these areas is relatively recent, the line is blurred somewhat. I would love to hear from someone who knows the ins and out of the laws on this, but it seems obvious that years of highly combustible material has been allowed to accumulate, which is why the fires are intense as they are.

    I know high temps and strong winds are a factor too, but if you remove one of the variables, I think the threat to human life would be much less. Again, just my opinion.
