G'morning Paul,

 MM> "How can the Government allow daylight saving this year ?  The

 PQ> That's right.  It'll never succeed here.  The hens won't lay properly,
 PQ> etc. And, the poor farmer will be forced to work longer hours

 PQ> (national) ABC TV 7 o'clock news of an evening (the
 PQ> farmer's friend almost) because it'll be on an hour
 PQ> earlier... etc, etc...

 PQ> Been there, done that many times in past referendums.  We
 PQ> don't need it in Queensland, besides, since there's already
 PQ> too much damned sunlight as it is.

That was the other thing that intrigued me - Queensland's always 
been a non-starter for Daylight Saving - has there been a change, 
or was there a recent attempt to introduce it ?

Miles.
