On the other hand, it is hard to feel a great deal of sympathy
for those who build on the banks of rivers and lose their shirts
when the river floods, and it is hard to feel sorry for those who
build wooden houses on hillsides of the type that have a long
history of catching fire. In either case any fool should know
that it is a case of not "if", but "when".
