[QUOTE="Goldfreak, post: 597854, member: 10082"] it's not common knowledge because the mainstream media didn't report it but during the initial moments of last years big KI fires the pilots of the water bombers where ready to go but were prevented from doing so because they where concerned the fire retardent would hurt the gumtrees in the national park. Also last year's fires in cuddle creek were started because gumtree touched powerlines. Ironically local green groups had prevented the utility company from trimming all the trees in that area a few weeks before. Ironic :/ [/QUOTE]
