The Australian Bushfires

Tue Feb 17, 2009, 8:53 AM
With the amount of media coverage on this disaster, I am sure you would have heard a bit about it from one way or another. I found it as a very disturbing event and how fragile we are when it comes to the fury of mother nature if given the chance, especially on a day hitting the top of 48°C in the shade.

I understand that some fires were lit by firebugs (arson), do keep in mind that *usually* they are not normal, their mind is not fit and as the case and that they often do not understand the consequences of their actions. I am not asking for you to forgive those group of people (far from it), I just want you to stop and think deeply about them without being clouded by hate. We got rid of lynch mobs for a good reason and I would really rather prefer it that continue to keep it to the history books.


Also on the fire, for those interested to see how furious it was, I feel that this video will give you a really good insight in how hellish it was over there. I did not experience it myself fortunately, but the thought of people seeing that is just scary.
