    I was just wondering if people outside Australia are actually hearing about this, cause I live in Victoria, Australia and i'm just curious, cause like it's all we're hearing on the news and TV here.

    And no, my house has not burnt down, the fires are about 100km away from me, and I live in the second largest town in the state so I probebly won't get burned.

    Apparently a fire that killed at least 21 people, and that number will rise, is the only one that te think arsonists started. But now there's copy cats starting new ones and the weather fr today isen't good and theres still heaps of fires.

    LOL, I was browsing through the topics and they were all about gaming, and then "Australian Bushfires" and I just thought that seemed so random and...
    ...
    Yeah...

    Anyway, I never hear about Australia in the news. o.o;
    And I just realized this is an old topic... :s Oops.
