I've heard about the bushfires over there. Unfortunately, we get our share over

here, in the US, too. I just don't understand the mentality of people who start

them on purpose. It's bad enough that they happen as part of nature and the

lifecycle thing. Starting them on purpose is beyond me.

Re: Jody-bushfires

Hi Jody, and any others in NSW - thanks for the " buzz " - being so

busy over the past week I failed to remember we had anyone living

in/near Sydney... hope everything is going OK, the smoke isn't too

bad and no-one you know is affected. I have to wonder what goes

through the minds of these firebugs? I hear they have " caught " 7

already.
