Re: Cockatoo Run Saved!

Sort of reminds me of the sorry saga of the Govt pouring buckets of money 
into Luna Park to prevent its closure (it didn't work of course, the Park 
remains belly-up to this day).

If & when Cockatoo Run comes back on line nxt year there ought to be 
strings attatched to the Govt subsidy to ensure there's no money being 
poured down a black hole (or into SMR18's firebox for that matter!).
