Bursting into flames

I think of the story of the phoenix mostly in terms of rising from the ashes. But I guess it first has to burst into flames and die.

With temperatures in the 40s next week, I will be unusually happy to be (mostly) stuck inside for the HL7 Working Group Meeting in Phoenix next week!

As an aside… I’ve never actually experienced 45 degree temperatures since I started speaking Celsius. But I know it’s really hot thanks to Midnight Oil. Who says all that time spent watching MTV was wasted??
