In late October of 2003 San Diego had one of the worst firestorms in US history up to that time.  The San Diego Union-Tribune called it “the hurricane from hell” as a lost hunter lighting a signal fire as the sun set sparked what would become Firestorm 2003 in the roadless Cleveland National Forest burning a 28 mile line of total destruction in only 14 hours.  With at least 16 people dead and more than 2,400 homes lost it turned 400,000 acres into charcoal and out was the largest forest fire in California up to that point in time.

Five years ago Smart Meters started what were originally claimed were “climate change” forest fires, except they were neither forest fires nor climate change related.  Of course, poor forest management and other causes were blamed, but still three years later Southern California Edison agreed to pay $2.2 Billion in damages caused by their smart meters which, incidentally, did “not cause” the fires or so they claimed.
