In fact, its the reverse of the usual assertion - "Australians seem to have
a general distaste with the mainly American-centric organization of lugnet
and TLC. Thus they have diverged as a group, many of their posters post very
rarely in other newsgroups (OK... not *all* of them, just some)." (see
http://www.lugnet.com/faq/~88/AU )
Although, of course, we may have grown as a people since the FAQ entry, but
I suspect we haven't changed that much.
