If so, they're my kind of folks. This is true some of the time, we do compete with the Germans on this. The under current of this is the large alcohol problem in australia, we also top the world in alcohol related crime and alcohol related illnesses eg liver disfunction. Last year I lost a dear friend, aged 40, who lost his battle with the bottle, he died on a Sydney street in the gutter. He new there was a better choice in life, but the bottle had him. I guess it was his choice, and lived his life as a tramp. None-the-less, he was a good friend. Kevin - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
