Ah, you get to be the semi-dispassionate observer from afar. Lucky you!

Good luck on helping steer your part of Western civilization to the right. Australia has just as much at stake as we do and I hope they're more generally aware of that!

No, lucky me for living where we don't get SNOW... this time last year I was suffering winter in Connecticut!

I'm not sure about "more generally aware"... frankly it makes me ill, watching some of what passes for "news coverage" here. But 9/11, and then October 12, 2002 (the Bali nightclub bombings) sure opened a few more eyes. Such a shame it had to happen at the expense of so many innocent lives, though...

Ooh, by the way - Welcome to Free Republic!
