And to think there's a handful of pathetic impotent little men out there who started a decent swathe of these fires just so they could feel less pathetic and impotent about their pathetic impotency. For once, I advocate bringing back eye-for-an-eye punishment: burn them at the stake.Dr Yobbohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10032085614743539793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6866739432072182626.post-2156650506168701442009-02-09T16:37:00.000+11:002009-02-09T16:37:00.000+11:00As per all the comments - what can you say.

The fate of the occupants who didn't survive could be considered perhaps that at the very least they are at peace now.Domestic Dazehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11367589992134982555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6866739432072182626.post-53654031334325373682009-02-09T11:11:00.000+11:002009-02-09T11:11:00.000+11:00Moko - Once one life is lost during a fire then pr...Moko - Once one life is lost during a fire then property loss cannot be referred to as a tragedy. It just becomes an inconvenience.<BR/><BR/>Chaz - Yeah I stayed up late sat night listening to the emergency broadcasts on the radio just in case the wind turned back our way. Kinglake is devasting, I know the area well as I often go for a drive out that way. I have also cycled from my mates place through the forest to Kinglake. Beautiful scenery back then, probably just ash now.<BR/><BR/>The most disturbing images have been the photos of burnt out cars on the Kinglake road. Cars that have either run off the road or crashed into each other probably because the smoke was so thick. The mind wanders to the fate of their occupants.Nautilushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03709472759179704843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6866739432072182626.post-71837159231666272242009-02-09T10:59:00.000+11:002009-02-09T10:59:00.000+11:00Naut glad to know all are well.
