Brad,
Re: your photo of Holden Lake - I can't see a Holden car there, so it must be misnamed.
(Holdens cars have been made in Oz since the 1930's or so - the only Oz-developed cars.)
Amos,
You are seriously undervaluing the talent of guys who have "the ability to push things through City Hall". Having worked in local government I can only have the utmost respect, admiration and awe for anyone who can get City Hall to do anything!
