So I am a fan of BBCnews.com and the coverage of the Australian wildfires have been rather shocking. It's devastating how a few misguided, socially irresponsible and horrible(disgusting even) arsonists could have caused the destruction of so many homes and the loss of countless lives.
If you go to the bbc site, there's a video of interviews with survivors and it is truthfully depressing. This man tried to save some people stuck in a burning car but he could not open the doors because it was too hot. Apparently, some of the hotels would not even open their doors to the 'old and people with babies' when they needed water and rest. Disturbing!
Hope the fires die down soon.
