I can't think of anything over which I've disagreed with Chuck. He's a fairly intelligent fellow.
I like Australians, even the ones that the Aussies themselves hate (i.e. Paul Hogan and Steve Irwin). I find the majority can appreciate a duct-tape and bailing wire fix, as much as an MIG weld. They tend to be active, "hands on", brawling kind of people (in one form or another). Very courageous.
I am ashamed of our entire political system, in comparison to theirs. And, on top of that, I think there is something to be said for fining people who do not vote.
Aussies get the job done.
