    To have Neil, Echidna, Clocker, Sara (Whom I thought was dead) and J2K4 in agreement in the same thread gives you celestial powers and me the shivers.

    Please use these powers to preserve your sanctuary.

    I am blowing the wind in the opposite direction as i do my "rain dance".
    Aren't we in the trust tree, thingey?

    I'm not entirely certain. The fire itself is about 6x the size it was before; indeed, it's only 5km away from here. But it's been pretty calm all day/night, so it hasn't advanced much since last day.

    things are quiet until hitler decides he'd like to invade russia
    so, he does
    the russians are like "OMG WTF D00DZ, STOP TKING"
    and the germans are still like "omg ph34r n00bz"
    the russians fall back, all the way to moscow
    and then they all begin h4xing, which brings on the russian winter
    the germans are like "wtf, h4x"

    that's not all bad MN remember that burned out land is your friend 'cause it can't fuel further fire fronts
    have you got all your gutters full of water?

    Hi everyone!!
    It's been quite a while since I since I've been hear.
    I really missed you guys(even echidna)!

    I would'nt worry about the fire because I hear it's only a class C fire.
    Use some Ketchup!

    Hey! I saw my house on the news! Cool!

    We're not able to use any water; it's all going to the fire trucks.
    If the land's burnt, so's my house. I'd rather not have to rebuild, thank you.

    It's over 13,000 hectares (31,200 acres) in size, S&A - that's far more than the 10-99 acres that classifies a "Class C" wildfire. And growing.

    The wind's picked up again; if I'm still here tomorrow or the next day, I'll be suprised.

    That'd be funny. Except that there's already a large forest fire burning on the line. Wildfires for everyone! Priced to clear.

    i'm suprised, prepared houses are not that hard to protect
    and beleive me if you can protect your house while spot fires reduce fuel loads around you, you end up in a much better position
    is water short then? no fire dams?
    i've watched north americans get torched every couple of years while half of aus burns annually and we mostly only suffer property loses, the majority of property protection during fires is done by property occupants

    good luck MN
