But we don't have marsupials in New Zealand - they're Australian! What's more, Australians speak strine, and we don't, so you really don't know what you're talking about, do you?

I'd point you towards a Barry Humphries video if you had broadband, but since you don't I'll spare you, and just give you a Sir Lesley Patterson photo from an Australian Government cultural site as an indication of what you're dealing with...

No - he doesn't do science, just the arts (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sir_Les_Patterson)...

And we have nothing like him, though he's a good example of a typical member of the Australian establishment.

You need to do more study if you're going to be writing about Australians!

Yeah - but then I thought - you had Boris Yeltsin, so it's not as though you won't recognize the type!

What Australian channels? There's none (yet) on Joost if that's what you're thinking...?
