However, in order to read the full article, you need to subscribe to the Quartz. I tried finding out how much the subscription would be, it's nowhere on the page. I don't really like not knowing how much something would cost. They just have the FREE trial button. The other FAQ questions don't really have the real price! So for the time being, I don't plan on subscribing. However, I have really enjoyed their analysis. At this point, I don't have that much time to read too many details. Summaries are much more preferred, that's my personal feeling these days.

Various videos reporting the fires in Los Angeles area on Twitter/X Updated information Jan 10, 2025: About the Resnicks and shortage of WATER and other manipulations." One billionaire couple owns almost all water in California.

The piles haven’t literally turned into stone (petrification), but they have become extremely hard. This is because they are submerged in oxygen-poor water, which prevents decay and allows minerals from the water to gradually reinforce the wood. 3. St. Mark’s Campanile stands on 100,000 piles – False. The bell tower is supported by about 10,000 wooden piles, not 100,000. 4. Basilica della Salute required over a million trunks – Likely an exaggeration. The basilica does rest on thousands of piles, but claims of a million are probably inflated. 5.
