Blue Mountians Bush Fires

Almost right on schedule, the regular (every 7-10 years) big bush fires have started.

The Springwood area of the NSW Blue Mountians was hit pretty hard, with over 80 or so homes destroyed in a matter of hours.

Guess where these homes were located?

Yep, right in the midst of the explosively flammable Australian bush; but there's more...they were on a ridge, with bush slopping off into gullies either side.

You'd think there would be a lesson in there somewhere.
