Amongst them you will find, for example, a complete listing of all deaths in WA since 1989, both Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal . Further, in the middle of the working homepage (windex.html) you will find a logo of the Watch Committee, a dot painting of a noose, it is temporarily linked to my work-in-progress which is the html-ing of our recent submission to the UN. Also, please note the recent Ombudsman's report on Deaths In Custody, it is a three years too late document, by a lawyer about a lawyer bound (read constipated) system, but has some valid recommendations nontheless. Please do not hesitate to contact me at this email if necessary and be reminded that Western Australia, as claimed to the UN Committee on Torture and accepted by them, has the highest "ethnic" incarceration rate in the world! On that sobering and disgusting thought, I'll close for now and wish you the best for your programme. jim --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----- Jim Duffield ----- http://www.kultcher.com/ --- The Australian mindset on Aborigines:"...the great Australian silence...."
