[QUOTE="shakergt, post: 530059, member: 10374"] Will something come out of these fires? I do not know but I hope so. I have a fair bit of experience when it comes to bushfires. I have seen trees explode as the oils get sucked out of them. I have had fires go over the top of me and I have even been trapped behind the fire front. In all my years of fighting fires the main thing I have lernt is that preparation is the best answer. It works but the problem is way to many people are to lazy to be prepared. However we seem to be learning. The BAL building standard is a huge step forward. Here in the west local councils in bush fire prone areas are mapping bushfire risks and putting in place bushfire risk plans and mitigation strategies. [/QUOTE]
