Dave, I refer you to Bruce Richardson’s email.  And I guess in one way he’s 
even more Australian than many.  My Larrakia/Kunwinjku daughter-in-law adopted 
him.  He now has to call me ‘older sister’ and treat me with respect - on that 
point (treating women with respect) maybe I should ask her if she consider 
Donald Trump as a candidate.

Nah, on second thoughts I don’t think that would work.  Bruce would reject him 
outright as a brother!
