Dany is fireproof and GRRM is full of shite. My personal take on things.

I wouldn't try google to find them, that might be too much effort required of you.

He says all Targs aren't immune to fire. Then when asked if Dany will do it again he says "probably not".
She aslo survives dragon fire that burns all her hair off in Dance. And in GOT there are references to hot water and hot dragon egg which have no impact on her.
There's a good bit in the books alluding to Dany having some form of immunity to fire.

FWIW I don't think this proves anything. It's a random message board post referencing an online Q&A he did in 2000. And he doesn't even outright say Dany is NOT immune.

In 2000 GRRM wrote in an online Q&A (emphasis is his, not mine):
Granny: Do Targaryens become immune to fire once they "bond" to their dragons?
George_RR_Martin: Granny, thanks for asking that. It gives me a chance to clear up a common misconception. TARGARYENS ARE NOT IMMUNE TO FIRE! The birth of Dany's dragons was unique, magical, wonderous, a miracle. She is called The Unburnt because she walked into the flames and lived. But her brother sure as hell wasn't immune to that molten gold.
Revanshe: So she won't be able to do it again?
George_RR_Martin: Probably not.

Again the whole thing with the hot water is much more easily explained by it being a hot bath but well within normal tolerances.
As to the drago fire, I can show you plenty of people on the internet who have their hair and/other hair singed off without suffering burns.
Overall if GRRM said she "probably" can't do it again then it seems to be a death knell to her being blanket fire immune.

Good thing we start the next episode thread so early. It really provokes stimulating and worth-while conversations.

You are hopeless.
I don't even know the logic you are trying to make here.

All that says to me is Targs are not born immune to fire. Danny is obviously immune when her dragons are born.

all of this

All the other examples you posted were from before her dragons were born, so that doesn't really hold up either.

WTF are you talking about? The shite with her holding the hot eggs or getting in the hot bath water? I never said anything about those being proof she is fire immune. That's just foreshadowing her walking out of the fire at the end of the book.
It's completely possible that because of Mirri's magic she is now immune to fire, not only because she is Targaryen.

This has gone on much longer than it should...just go back to trolling the SEC Rant. This conversation is pointless.
