It's all to do with demand dear Todger. Perhaps you can come up with a method of making steel without it?

It's not just coal we have lovely gas too (wanna buy some?)



So lovely to see you supporting our mates in China (our biggest trading partner) Good on ya!

Steel can be produced by inductive zone refining. The very best always is. No coal required. Similarly "natural" gas as a fuel source is increasingly becoming yesterday's fuel. The environment cost is FAR too high.

As for China being the biggest trading partner - best not piss them off than your government is doing or that situation will VERY soon end and for a variety of reasons a replacement market really will not be as easy as your government might think.

Thanks for the advice I am sure Scotty from Marketing will be excited to receive it. As a token of his thanks here is a picture of Joan Collins



Do keep coming up with more of your handy tips.

Trouble with DA is that art work is all too easily nicked and reproduced to appear as cheap prints.

I think that's a problem with all digital art, Morticia. Don't know how they live with themselves.

I was considering getting into digital art for my games, but since an original artwork can never be guaranteed (because computer files can simply be copied), I decided to just resume my traditional art. At least then I know there will always be an original, even if it is scanned and saved as a file.

It looks pretty parched and could whip up a sand storm if you did a wheelie with your car....

I’m sure there is much prettier scenery in Australia.

I have relatives that live out there....

Aussies are quite loud I hear...from what my uncle told me...they also call woman Sheila....I wonder why?..

They also live in thongs apparently....no suit and tie..

Australians still use coal?

Do they still use plastic bags too?

Ummm let's give you a bit of a clue. Here is Scotty from Marketing when he was Treasurer. He is now Prime Minister




It's all to do with our Federal Government's really innovative climate policy developed after last years fires.
