No mention of Perth?  As usual, like the Taswegians, Sandgropers are
outside the consciousness of "the Eastern States".  Though small by
other States' standards, this Metro system is one of the most
successfull in Australia.  We seem not to exist in the minds of any
one East of the Nullabor.  Secession seems the only option.

PS: E-mail <gvrail@thatsent.com.au> for more details...allow about 10
days, as he's currently visiting the dreaded "Eastern States".  The
"Eastern States" of course is a world unto itself, blissfully unaware
of existences outside the Sydney-Canberra-Melbourne axis.  Remember
the infamous "Brisbane Line" from WWII!  I remember living in Sydney
in 1991for three months.  As far as the "cognoscenti" were concerned,
any thing that happened roughly west of Missenden Road, didn't exist
as far as the media were concerned.
