Reference :- Andy Bolt revealed that five fire chiefs have gone crazy with the heat . Along with millions of people worldwide who fear climate change .

Reference:-    Andy Bolt accused us of being easily panicked over a few hundred  bushfires , which he says hardly qualify as "catastrophic ".   He sounds particularly drunk in this news segment , though perhaps it is some obscure illness causing glossitis .

Not drunk are you Andy ?  I hope not , but urge you to seek medical attention . It is actually becoming difficult to understand some of the words you articulate .   Also , could you stop running that " memory of a goldfish "  line ?    Goldfish do have excellent memories .   Probably better than many human beings .   A fascinating study by Israeli scientists a few years back showed that  the little buggers have excellent recall .  This was later confirmed by a young Australian called Rory Stokes , down near where you grew up .   I reckon you should run a story on  Mr Stokes , as a tribute to Australian scientists .   That's up to you , of course , but I would stop using your goldfish simile  .  If you are 100% wrong about something , it gives the impression that you know stuff all about anything else .  

 Anyway , here's something to consider , that you are welcome to use on your show .
Having myself been in many a dangerous or calamitous situation over the years , it has become obvious to me that people remain calm provided they have confidence in their leaders , and believe there are open lines of honest communication.   Confronted with lies , denial , contradictory assessments and incompetent leaders people are very much prone to panic .  

Well Andy , you can see the problem .  It doesn't help when you rant about our most experienced firefighters being idiots . Perhaps you could suggest that you think ( with your breathtaking experience in the field )  that they may need to readdress some of their conclusions because  of certain facts you feel they may have overlooked .  Less likely to cause panic , do you think?    Although not as newsworthy , granted .


Returning to goldfish ... my son , Ken Junior, points out that I did inform you about their excellent memories in a previous post . But I guess you must have forgotten .   

   Your comrade , Ken
