[SEL] OT........bush fires in Australia

[James Moran]

RS-
  Thank you for supplying the analysis of what transpired (e.g., Mann  Gulch, etc.).  Reading this sheds a fresh insight to the song  composed by James Keelaghan.  It is impossible to imagine what  that scenario (and other similar) must be like to experience.
  Thanks again.
