Hi all
I know this has been a partcularly hot topic, so just wanted to pass this on:
http://news.smh.com.au/breaking-news-na ... -knt0.html
I hope this is the good new we've all been looking for. Hopefully, it becomes permanent.
Personally, so long as there's access, I'll cope.

Yes, I'm also not holding my breath. However, I choose to see this as a Good Thing with the potential of a better result.
