As for the suspected arsonists, I hope they catch them and lock them up for some time.aztec-rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03808886984112378962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22696356.post-913901645461471352009-02-09T07:37:00.000+11:002009-02-09T07:37:00.000+11:00We drove through/near some of these areas last wee...We drove through/near some of these areas last weekend on our way down to a friend's in Melbourne. Hubby and I both commented that the paddocks and trees were so dry that if they went up they'd go up big. How sad our prediction was right.<BR/><BR/>I've reached my saturation point with the information - I've got it all turned off now. I am completely overwhelmed by the level of destruction and the realisation that these poor people (victims and emergency services) will be mentally scared by this...the official death toll will never account for the suicides, marriage breakups, mental breakdowns and other side effects of something this big.Shrinking Tardiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10383726486642280700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22696356.post-57311594800811044552009-02-09T00:52:00.000+11:002009-02-09T00:52:00.000+11:00I agree with Ariane on this one.

I didn't read too much more after that. <BR/><BR/>Godawful, let's hope it all ends soon.Arianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17977679825245376111noreply@blogger.com
