G'day again Fooles,

How can someone who can't walk down the road unless they are being followed around by thousands of people and hundreds of millions of dollars of hi-tech equipment, consider themselves to be free?

Yes ... and what about someone else who thinks they are free to walk down that same street? I didn't see this - it was mentioned on Wednesday night by another at the Sydney Camera & Image Collectors meeting. Apparently, one of the TV news programs spoke to a woman who had been on one of our public streets when the shrub did a brief "meet the people". Bush had spoken to her ... and the broadcasters asked what he had said.

Her reply was (~) that she "... didn't remember - she had been freaked out by suddenly seeing all these police snipers taking aim over the building parapets!".

Regardfully,

Bob
