[Marxism] Laguna Hills - Introduction to the Logic of "Freaks[s] of Nature"

[Brian Shannon <Brian_Shannon@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

In October 1978, a slide in the same canyon destroyed 14 homes. In
February 1998, a rainstorm triggered slides in the area that killed two
people and damaged 300 homes, 18 of them seriously. The area was
ravaged by a wildfire in October 1993 that destroyed 400 homes. Most
were rebuilt within a half-dozen years.

The cause of the latest slide was not immediately clear, but a
geologist hired by the city said this year's higher-than-normal
rainfall was a likely culprit.

"I'll stay here forever," said artist Scott Moore, 55, who was among
those evacuated. "It's kind of a freak of nature that lightning would
strike in the same place twice. It's very unfortunate for those who are
in the middle of it. I just hope they all come out all right."

Let me see: rain, hill, large homes, burnoff of brush, previous
disasters = freak of nature OR logically challenged human freak

Looks like a good place for construction workers. You don't have to
wait for suckers to be born. You can depend on the same ones.
