Merle,

Signs I sense inspire in me the view that Australia is very much on the 
ascendency.

I don't mean just economically, politically; I mean in culture and civility.  
It's think it's a great example for the world, and a great influence.  As 
America is, if you ignore certain things, or are American yourself.

My sense lately is that Australia is more and more on top, and not so much down 
under as its legacy moniker may have run.  ;-)

I'm an outsider and I can see these things clearly, clearly enough to feel 
convinced within myself that they may be true.

--Joe

PS  You have a great passel of fine Zen teachers there, too (traceable to Bob 
Aitken).
