So does that mean we just let fires go now?
In theory we'd have less worry about mega fires if we just let the little ones
go about their business on mild days.
Hoping an ex-NT Chief, with responsibility for Darwin as well as the Tanami,
and formerly a vollie in Sydney northern suburbs will have a bit more urban
awareness. We urban fringe brigades may have less land to worry about, and
individual assets may be worth less than most farms, but we have the highest
concentrations of sheep-like people. While Darwinism is a popular religion in
its theory, practical application to large populations of -our- citizens
generates much negative press.
Hmmmm... I wonder if pointing this out to Hon. Treas. would loosen the
purse-strings a little...
