This is just awful...i hadn't been paying much attention to this, as the first reports were rather sparse of info, but now, christ...166 dead? Tragic...something like 900 square miles decimated.
stories about a woman and her children taking refuge in a wombat burrow and being saved from the flames.
It is hard to imagine a fire moving at 60 MPH like that...can only imagine the terror...
i fear the true number of casualties will only get worse. :frown1:
is there any link or site that is offering/accepting contributions or aid? Or does the government have the costs/aid issue under control? If not, i am sure myself and many others would like to donate to the poor folks who have lost everything.
