It's said Emperor Nero was complicit in 64 AD burning of ancient Rome. He wanted a modern city to complement his enormous and lavish palace. So, burning down Rome served a purpose. In a semi-arid landscape, L.A.'s fires might be considered NEGLIGENT. Southern California's property assessors determine 350,000 private swimming pools. It's no wonder fire hydrants were EMPTY. Also, L.A. funds fire departments only at the rate of ONE fireman for every ONE THOUSAND residents. MUSIC Hans Zimmer & Ben Wallfisch, Dave Grusin, Sarah Brightman, Dominck Hauser, Leslie Garrett
