    IT LOOKS VERY INTERESTING.

    Unless he's moved to the Sydney Opera House, the Sydney Harbour Bridge or Uluru (Ayre's Rock, in the Ancient Tongue), he's not likely to show up.

    You do realise that the reason England began a penal colony in NSW in 1788 was because they could no longer transport convicts to the American colonies, due to losing the Revolutionary War? That there are probably more descendents of transported British convicts in the South (including Tennessee) than in all of Australia? That South Australia boasts of having been a free settlement? Or are you just ignorant?

    I know they showed some pics of the Aborigines.

    Another bloody stereotype! Aborigines make up about 2% of the population, and most of that percentage live in coastal cities, like the rest of us. It's as sensible to show tribal Aborigines when showing the "real Australia" as it is to showcase the Anu when showing the "real Japan"in all these guiltfests that pass as documentaries.

    Stephanus,

    of the "doesn't have kangaroos bouncing down his street everyday" class.

    Oh lighten up Stephanus. Go have a drink or something.

    I know that about the Aborigines. I'm still interested in the vastness of the continent, etc.

    Why? I'll never have film crews documenting my life and those of my family, but I think our lives are still valid. I've struggled with various kinds of mental illness, managed to stay married for some time, and raised some good kids while losing one on the way. In this day and age, you aren't important unless big media picks up your story. I'm sorry we small and ordinary Australians aren't worthy of your attention! Forget I said anything.

    Oh, and I don't drink because alcohol and my medication don't mix too well. I'm sorry about that, too!
