(Juxt) OK. Thanks for giving us jazz. And Tom & Jerry.
(Duj) The only piece of Australiana I have is a home-made boomerang (Specifications in New Scientist 1974.) It's big and doesn't half go but has to be thrown left-handed. They're not symmetrical.

[Rosie] I have found that turning them upside down usually helps. Then again I'm no expert any more than I'm a left handed sort of a bloke. Keep in mind, Rosie, that the heavier boomerangs were not designed to return but to stay in the air long enough to knock the noggins of the target.

[rab] Didn't realize the lakes were so stormy ;o)

Not too nice down here either. (Softers) Good science.

Zero degrees here. *throws snowball at morniverse*

(CdM) Where are you at the moment?

[Rosie] -37.15; 146.43

*receives grease-stained envelope containing strange hard lump in the post* ;o)

(CdM) Not surprised it's snowy up Mount Buller. An assumption, of course, because you have quite unforgivably omitted the ρ-coordinate, which I take to be 6378137 + 1805 m. Greetings, anyway, from 51.32; -0.06, 6378306 m.

So "on the surface of the earth" is not the default, then. :-)
