My deepest sympathies go out to all of those affected by the latest round of tragic bushfires. They are already talking royal commissions, and my only hope is that the wisdom that will no doubt come from the inquiry using a range of well qualified people, is implemented to it's fullest extent. For too long we have tragedies like this occur, then talkfests that come up with sound logical plans only to be left in the too costly/too hard basket.

Please use the memory of this to ensure it doesn't happen as badly next time.

Oh and thankyou to all those who risk their lives to help others fixed/rotary/ground. The word heroes gets used a lot these days, but for some people there can be no argument.
