The same applies over here and after the last Xmas holocaust in NSW, mostly lit by arsonists the laws have been tightened and made more severe. I know of at least 10 cases prosecuted and age is no excuse now, longer sentences etc. But one of the worst which the court case was finalised this week, the arsonist was a bush fireman, the book is being thrown at him. -- Keith Antoine (GANDALF) aka 'skippy' 18 Arkana St, The Gap, Queensland 4061 Australia PH:61733002161 Retired Geriatric, Sometime Electronics Engineer, Knowall, Brain in storage _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list - http://linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Archives,and Digests are located at the above URL.
