UK Mirror site states:
“Police believe that some of the blazes were started deliberately. Victoria's police deputy commissioner Kieran Walshe said: “Some fires started in localities that could only be by hand, it could not be natural causes. We need to get our investigators and our forensic scientists into the fire scenes to do a full, thorough investigation.”
There's also been an arrest of a fellow they believed murdered his mother by setting her on fire (and then the first spread and got out of control)…(shaking head).
In addition to all the human beings being slayed by this fire, the local wild life specialists are saying that massive amounts of wild life (thousands and thousands) have died and/or are suffering as well (in particular fruit bats and possums have been hit very hard).
For right now, the only thing that we can do is to pray.
I lit a candle for them last night and will do the same tonight.
Thanks for the update Doc.

Wow, reading your piece Dr. E, shone a light all the way back to Queens NY, where I and my bro, set fire to an empty field, my bro maintains we did it twice. Finally hiding behind bathroom door when the fire chief came to grill my father, setting off his rage.

Don't know why we did it …………..boredom……………..play that got out of control………….

So I hope the evil doers turn out to be out of work insurance adjusters, or just plain fire loving fire fighters, instead of such much loss at the hands of kids………………
