    Wholesale electricity prices up in Victoria since Hazelwood power station closure - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)

    Ha! Ha! Ha!

    My Perentie is now for sale. $13,000,000.00.
    I don't want to depress the market.

    (Edit: In case someone is prepared to pay that amount for it, I was only joking. It's really not for sale.)
