G'day Michael,

In Oz, the law requires that we vote (a good idea, I think - imagine how
different US history might have been) - anyway, it has been some time since
I've voted with passion, but I feel that, just as tuberculosis is much
'better' than lung cancer (at least whilst effective antibiotics pertain)
so is voting day still important in politics. But politics is a poor and
hopeless thing indeed if it be confined to a choice between diseases once
every three or four years...
>Recall what Chao en Lai said about the French Rev.: "It's too early to tell."
Did Mao pinch that once? I seem to remember him telling an American
journalist something like this in the '60s ...
Cheers,
Rob.
