What an interesting, cop out, response - not denigrating me - how come ??
Just further on your dribble to you "mate" Gino :
Cyclone Tracy occurred on Christmas Eve - until around 0500 on Christmas Day.
Later Christmas Day, comms were gradually restored and the rest of Aust learnt the news.
General Stretton was a real hero of post-Cyclone Darwin BUT he wasn't around to make "the last call out of Darwin" - utter bs.
In the main, the evacuation was very orderly and efficiently carried out - there was no chaos, with babies and kids running loose, needing playground equipment.
My wife and two small boys were evacuated on day 2 - air lifted by Ansett, right round Aust to finally end up in Adelaide.
The real heros in it all were the Salvos and Red Cross - not army medicos. The other heros were the people of Australia - all of whom pitched in to try to help with anything needed.
You carry on as if you definitely know everything - this once I could not tolerate the lies !!
btw I fully agree with you on the effects of a cat 4 on the Gold Coast. Fortunately they haven't been anywhere near in recent times and the climate hysteria won't bring them any closer.
