Hi all
I think Lawrie Conole spoke clearly enough for everyone on this list.
We really don't want another flame war - just managed to hang onto
subscribers by dousing a couple of flareups recently.
I don't know why it's so important to put states into every report
anyway. If someone sees a nice bird in Cairns, am I going to be able
to see it? Not likely! So it doesn't matter if it's in Cairns,
Coonamble or Cooper's Ck. But if someone posts about a Regent
Honeyeater in Newstead, or a Satin Bowerbird in Corio, I know where
they are because they're within reach! I suppose for travelers the
extra bit of info is useful, but let's not get our knickers quite so
tangled about all this.

Well, what unpleasantness, I don't think I'll bother posting any more
sightings to this list. What a contrast to the several Australian Plant
lists I subscribe to. OK Terry Pacey, if you want the exact location,
it was
half a kilometre south of Blanket Hill, in the head of the wide gully
which
runs down into Dummy Creek just above Paradise Valley, on the Licola
Road in
Gippsland. Oh, by the way, there is a herd of Angus cattle grazing
along the
roadside at that spot too, you will have no trouble finding it, just
look
for all the muck on the road. That's it from me, Duncan Fraser
