I'm watching on Foxtel, Chaz has just written off his Mustang in T.T. Shootout,...a total loss.
Big race (one of two) starts at 4.00PM!

I can go on, but have I made my point? Why is respect for others and their beliefs so hard for some people?

Nope, don't need to take any points off, the % is only of the actual members who voted.
The issue has been done to death, I'm just clearing up (clarifying is probably a better word!) my comment.

Wow, those Japanese must be pretty smart, making trees!
Then again, eevo's probably just trying to get a rise out of Bob.

There is always Mount Augustus in WA , a rock twice as big as Uluru , with a climbing trail called Summit Trail for anyone fit enough to do it roughly about 12K return climb .

Also known as Burringurrah by the local Wajarri People .
