(...) Careful, Wagga Wagga is from one of the native Australian (Aboriginal) languages, people tend to get a bit serious about these things. Town names in Australia are either replicas of English towns, eg. Brighton or Aboriginal names like (...) (25 years ago, 9-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.pun)

(...) Strangely, yes. It's only about fifty miles from home. There's actually a big sign that says 'Welcome to HELL' in big flaming letters, and it's always a laugh to see it covered in icicles in the winter :c) -Jeremiah- (25 years ago, 8-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.pun)

You Australians have some of the silliest town names I've ever heard. Wagga- wagga is my favorite. I like Happy, Texas. (25 years ago, 8-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.pun)

(...) I liked the keyword feature. But it's really a bunch of already-run searches - what's the use of that? Just use the search box. I had to outsmart it, though, to get it to list all parts. I used a q=* switch. But I think that's the point, (...) (25 years ago, 2-Nov-00, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.general, lugnet.off-topic.pun)
