      @@Playsinthedirt, it is no joke. Insurance companies typically do everything they can to keep from paying out.
      I was rear-ended in a car accident and left for dead. I spent 3.5 years in rehab and spent another five year collecting and only got medical bills paid. I had over a million dollars in lost wages and didn't even get enough to cover all the medical. Republicans have protected the insurance companies to the point that a victim cannot get fair compensation.

      @Playsinthedirt 2 года назад +4

      @HAPPY TO BE ALIVE It is my understanding that the people of paradise NEVER got paid from their insurance companies. I know many were not allowed to rebuild. That's because they wanted people off of that land. That's why they burned them out. It will be the same thing with Boulder.
      I'm wondering if the few houses that are still standing have smart meters.. I would imagine all of the houses that burned down to absolutely nothing had smart meters. Grass fires don't typically burn metal vehicles down vehicles down to nothing, and large 2 and 3 story homes down to their concrete foundations.

      @happytobealive5045 2 года назад +2

      @@Playsinthedirt, I love conspiracy theories but in this case the fires flashed across the dry grass land and burned over 500 homes. If you have not been near a forest fire or an open range fire than I cannot explain the science behind it. There is no conspiracy here in Colorado.

      I figured out how to build a home or building that is fire and tornado proof for cheaper than any 3 homes put together maybe cheaper than that. It can be made to float in case of a flood also.
      My idea uses concrete but only as a coating. Take a look at the video. The home or structure doesn't have to be a perfect dome. The idea is to not have flat walls though. Cars are not boxes for a reason. That reason is aerodynamics.
      Instead of making the dome out of clothe or plastic make it out of Kevlar because its bulletproof. Most any projectile will not breech Kevlar.
      Instead of filling the dome with air fill it with expanding foam insulation.
      The framework i don't have figured out but i image something like a camping tent framework might work?
      After the home/structure is up spray it with shortcrete which is basically spray on concrete.
      To make the home float on water have the structure be able to slip off the infrastructure (plumbing and electrical). The home built on a concrete slab but not joined to the slab. The bottom of the house is made of a thick layer Styrofoam so when there is a flood the home will rise with the water. As the home rises it disconnects from the infrastructure and floats away. If this happens the home would need to be transported back to the owners slab and reconnected to infrastructure.
      I'm not a builder. i have no patents on these ideas. i have no money either.

      I figured out how to build a home or building that is fire and tornado proof for cheaper than any 3 homes put together maybe cheaper than that. It can be made to float in case of a flood also.
      My idea uses concrete but only as a coating. Take a look at the video. The home or structure doesn't have to be a perfect dome. The idea is to not have flat walls though. Cars are not boxes for a reason. That reason is aerodynamics.
      Instead of making the dome out of clothe or plastic make it out of Kevlar because its bulletproof. Most any projectile will not breech Kevlar.
      Instead of filling the dome with air fill it with expanding foam insulation.
      The framework i don't have figured out but i image something like a camping tent framework might work?
      After the home/structure is up spray it with shortcrete which is basically spray on concrete.
      To make the home float on water have the structure be able to slip off the infrastructure (plumbing and electrical). The home built on a concrete slab but not joined to the slab. The bottom of the house is made of a thick layer Styrofoam so when there is a flood the home will rise with the water. As the home rises it disconnects from the infrastructure and floats away. If this happens the home would need to be transported back to the owners slab and reconnected to infrastructure.

    Sadly, this will happen again. 20 years ago, none of those houses were there because of high winds and dry tall grass. That's why they put wind farm's out there.
    Land developers need to stop building houses out there. Real estate agents need to stop selling houses OR be more open about the risks living out there. Property owners could sue land developers for not being totally honest. I feel for the people because they've lost everything AND they've been lied to. Very sad 😥

    Some comments wonder (and blame) how much global warming is to blame for this. I've been trying to reply that the wind blew a powerline down which sparked the fires. Climate change/global warming is still to blame because these record breaking winds should not be so frequent at this time of year. Tornados should not be ripping up entire communities in Kentucky right before Christmas. The struggle is real.
