Fairs fair Ian, you know what small communities are like. Eevo may get even more black balled which for a Firie is pretty easy at the best of times if things go tits up, & one never knows who reads this board.

Just sayin'

I assume you would take the same view of the fires in NSW then?
According to your logic, it’s natural selection. If you want to use dirty tactics in this discussion all I can assume is that if your logic is applied to famine, refugees, war zones, etc. then why not bushfires in Sydney?

And the problem with natural selection is? Evolution has been using it for millions of years, as just another species who are we to think we are better? To take a slightly less extreme approach than the one that you might have in mind - People choose to build a house in the forest, house gets burned down , government declares that houses shall not be rebuilt in a high risk area. Natural selection at work

A factual opinion, you've made a remark that you cannot or will not backup. That is unsubstantiated gossip.

In which case he should refrain from spreading gossip, like a fishwife.
I have no interest in the colour of his danglies.

Greg Mullins, former Fire and Rescue NSW commissioner, says warmer conditions with higher fire danger prevent hazard reduction burning.

"Blaming 'greenies' for stopping these important measures is a familiar, populist, but basically untrue claim."


Oops

And what is wrong with that - it is a forum afterall where unsubstantiated gossip is all the go - not a court of law.
