Odd, even the local radio isn't mentioning any of the immediately useful information? Or is it another instance of catering to news sensationalism and lack of advanced planning overtaking common sens- It seems the australian and american governments have a lot in common. Like a certain leader here being called a Bush lackey. When it comes down to frustrating the citizens, I'm sure the american government will win short-term, and the australian government long-term. Or a draw. Either way, do you have to go to work tomorrow?
