bilby commented on the word ernie hartnall
"Few admit to being nervous, and most are adamant they can defeat the looming fire as debate rages about whether the longstanding policy of 'stay-and-defend or leave early' should be revised. Ernie Hartnall and his wife Robyn said they had no fear despite acknowledging Toolangi could be obliterated in the same way as nearby Kinglake and Marysville.
'Year after year, every summer for 42 years, you sit and wait and watch and wonder is it going to happen,' Mr Hartnall said. 'You know that fire is a part of your life I will stay and fight even if it means risking my life.'"
