So, Australia is slowly waking up to the fact that bushfires are actally a national issue and not just a state issue because of what some call 'state responsibilty'
crikey ----------- how slow witted are we?
in another 100 years or so - we might wake up to other facts -------- like that the Nation actually needs it's populace educated and the Nation would have a far better result if it actually paid for it as opposed to forcing individuals to pay for it
but, yawn -------------- things happen very very very very slowly
