    You need to create a sign and go protest:

    "Why Now U Don't Arson?"

    Typo Man: "Thanks kidz, but remembir, stay in skool!"

  • I'm so sorry Dimitris... It's so sad... It's really scary all that's happening in Greece... And I'm terrified we'll be following greeks steps pretty soon, for the same reasons...

  • 5 steps to putting out a Greece fire.

    1.DO NOT USE WATER ON A GREASE FIRE! Start evacuating everyone from the building. Fires spread extremely fast and can overwhelm victims in minutes. Treat burns only after evacuating the building.

    2.Call 911. There's no reason to wait, and the fire department can always go back to the station if you are able to get the fire out without help.

    3.The easiest way to smother a grease fire is to cover it with a pan lid. Be careful with glass lids; they can break from the extreme heat of open flame.

    4.Grease fires can also be smothered with baking soda, but it takes a lot of baking soda to do the trick. Unless the baking soda is easily accessible, it's usually easier to quickly find a lid.

    5.A dry chemical fire extinguisher will also work, but it will contaminate your kitchen and food. Class K fire extinguishers are available to put out grease and other kitchen fires, but they are usually only found in commercial kitchens

    Good Luck.

    ...and the others break...

    They are people of the government. The government always sends their boys to take down a peaceful protest. And of course, they always cooperate with our "good" police. We must fight them back and continue to demonstrate against these unconstitutional decisions.

    I am so sorry this is happening to your home

    it is a helpless feeling ... anger but being a nonviolent person in your heart

    I'm afraid this will soon be our country too ... we are not far behind

    What they are showing on TV is the worst bit. I have also seen thousands upon thousands of peaceful Greek protestors. Not just a few hundred intent on creating mayhem. Though all of this can't end very well.....

    I was thinking about you when I saw the story of the fires on the news.

    It is a very unstable world we live in these days.

    Take care.
