    Hawaii Governor Josh Green said during an interview over the
    weekend that more than 1,000 people are still unaccounted for
    following the devastating Maui fire that struck the small
    town of Lahaina earlier this month.

    The fire from a couple of weeks ago has already been designated
    as the deadliest fire in the U.S. in over a century with well
    over 100 lives confirmed lost and it has triggered intense
    criticism of President Joe Biden over his lack of response
    to the tragedy.

    . . .

    The Gov is trying to sugar-coat it a little. It's not
    that big an island, weren't even ways into or out of
    town because the roads had vaporized. If they still can't
    find 1000 people it's because they never really left ...
    might find a few charred fragments, maybe not even that.
    The wind-whipped flames were hot enough to melt steel ...
