:) Wow, I'm amazed news of it as travelled so far. We're all horrified in Australia because it's our worst disaster... but I wouldn't have thought other countries would have reported it (except New Zealand, because apparently our smoke travelled over to there).

Thanks for the thought to help though, I appreciate it.

We are going to donate $100, which I will do today, but somehow it seems so insignificant compared to what they will need, but we can't afford to donate more... so I figure if I can help raise more through other means, then every bit helps.

oh yes, it was on the major news programs and it had a full page in our newspaper, it's horrible, I'm so sorry!

if everyone gave 100, it would go a long way wouldn't it, no-body can do it all, you are doing what you can !

todays newspaper says "it's our fault, they are paying the price for the abuse of the environment, global warming has turned Australia into a tinderbox"
