   Maybe you get an edited version.  (Lucky you!)  Both days were live telecasts   
   of at least five hours each day, with one or two extra hours prior to the   
   actual racing.   
      
   Well, the best man won!  The bloke who should have won at Bathurst. Luckily he   
   had enough go-go juice this time.  :)

   Ah, we don't have that nonsense here.  There are certain factions, amongst the   
   refugees who have moved north from our southern states no doubt, that are   
   pushing for our state to go with DST.   
      
   A recent TV/newspaper poll showed up major differences of opinion of   
   populations close to our southern border, compared with people to the north on   
   my locale.  We've already knocked it back in a previous referendum (15-20   
   years ago?) and I don't think the notion would survive in the next one.   
      
   OTOH, if the politicians present some region-based 'ticket' then there could   
   be a split of populations, using different time zones.  It's do-able but an   
   ugly idea nevertheless.   
      
   Of course, the whole idea of DST runs at odds with our environment.  We have   
   the highest incidence of skin cancers in the world's population. And, the   
   idiots want to increase exposure time for the people.   
      
   Stupidity: the second most common element in the universe.  ;-)   
      
   Cheers,   
   Paul.
