All great points.

I had a call from the office of my local member today asking what 
issues are driving my vote. 1 - I hate the ALP prisons for refugees 
program. 2 - NBN - the ALP needs to learn about this technology and 
counter Turnbull's lies. What this article lacks is mention of the 
'wifi alternative' furphy. As I said to the caller, physics doesn't lie.

Our truest response to the irrationality of the world is to paint or 
sing or write, for only in such response do we find truth.
