Arson Suspected in Namdaemun Fire
By Lee Hyo-sik
Staff Reporter
A fire broke out at Sungnyemun _ more commonly known as Namdaemun,
meaning South Gate in Korean _ a historic structure from the Joseon
Kingdom located in the center of Seoul, Sunday night, causing a major
problem for firefighters.
The fire occurred around 8:50 p.m., police said. About 30 fire trucks
along with 90 firefighters rushed to the scene to bring the blaze under
control. There were no reports of any casualties and the cause of the
fire has yet to be determined, they said.
According to firefighters, Namdaemun did not seem to sustain major
damage other than minor burning to the area underneath the roof.
Police suspect someone deliberately started the fire as a taxi driver,
identified only by his surname Lee, said he saw a man in his 50s go up
the stairs of the gate with a shopping bag, while he was waiting to
pick up a customer in the nearby area.
Lee said he then saw a spark like a firework and reported it to police,
adding the man came down the stairs afterwards. The taxi driver said he
drove around looking for the man but could not find him.
About 40 police officers were dispatched to the scene and questioned
eyewitnesses to identify the cause of the blaze. Also, some roads were
blocked to traffic as firefighters put out the fire.
Namdaemun, the oldest wooden structure in Seoul, was originally built
in 1398 and then renovated in 1962, following its destruction during
the Korean War. It was given the status of National Treasure No. 1.
My heart aches...

I have an old, old comic book, "The Importance of Fax", but it's actually referring to Sex!
It has very funny anecdotes like, "You may want to fax all your friends at the same time, but not all your friends may want to fax you back!", "It is alright to fax your boss.", etc. ![]()

What r u talking about?
I emailed the Brazilian in PDF file the signed contract which was also sent by email
Then he said he can't print so he ask me to fax over which I have yet too.
But I find it funny that 'sheet' became 'shit' and 'whole' became 'hole'

That he feels for a monkey too

Reading what you wrote, I can't help but think of the different responses I've seen from families so far regarding the death of the elderly.
I like what most families do here - the elderly actually save for their own funeral packages, and they make their wishes known to their children. I remember one family who told me that their dying Nanna wanted a simple cremation and instead of wreaths, she wanted the money to be donated to her favourite charity.
An elderly patient and I were chatting once and we both hoped that Australia will pass the voluntary euthanasia act during our lifetimes so we can make choices.

Don't the elderly save for their own funeral packages?
The people I know all do and they make their wishes known too.
