Greg and others,
My wife asked me the same question last night. I firstly replied that
it is impossible for me to replicate and then had a shot. And failed.
It's sort of a twittery whistle, that rises in pitch, and doesn't last
more than a second. I've tried to think of a birdy comparison but
nothing comes to mind. Maybe someone else (Graham?) can give a better
description?
I've just had a poke around the net and can't find a recording to send
you. If anyone else has one perhaps they wouldn't mind sharing it?

Evan,
You must have a great memory if you can keep all of those lists in your
head. I envy you. As the number of lists grow and the numbers of birds on
those lists grow you might find it necessary to have a written copy. There
is nothing more valuable than a written record of an interesting sighting
from many years back.
Re. the call of the Ringtail Possum. I have only heard a Ringtail call once
and it was not a very conspicuous call. This might be because they are in
low numbers near my home. Can you describe the call of the Ringtail? We
frequently have Common Brushtails 'coughing' here.
