Thanks Mark. :D

Were you aware of this bit of news (http://www.news.com.au/dailytelegraph/story/0,27574,25750089-5006009,00.html)? Another brainy idea from our wonderful, fearless Kevin '07 and his entourage. What a joke!

Yes, heard about it yesterday.
Can't believe it's even been considered!

"I have no idea of where humpback whales migrate," he said.

"Nor do I care", he didn't say... :(

Maybe the whale is scoping out those "nice warm apartments" in anticipation of moving in while the coal industry blasts away at his preferred habitat. We have the same mentality going on in Alaska with oil and wolf slaughter. Incredible.

Marc, good capture of nature in the urban fringe, and of course an ironic title!

Sad story, hope it doesn't go through. Big business over nature again.
