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.
