What did you expect?? lol Murdoch to me is a throwback to an extent of
those media moguls a century ago who would say anything in a headline to
sell papers. It sounds like the show you were on went well,
congratulations.

I was touched by your stories about how war has touched your family. I am
sorry. Whether fighting on the frontline or building the tools of war we
all contribute to it. But these people were in the second world-war? That
was at least a 'good' war to stop tyranny. Perhaps what is right for
Australia is simply not right for the United States, at least to my mind.

later:
Actually most New Zealanders are women
(end)

Why is that? Where have the men gone?

sincerely,
