You mean El Presidente Kennet. That guy
is my ideal model for a Megacorp CEO.
(he runs the state like a megacorp) Everyone
hates him anyway.

Hamish before we start jumping into Tasmania
I'd like to see Australia looked at. After all I remember
reading about an Australia sourcebook being due
for release as far back as 1993. There has been
much "rumour" about what happened to that.
It's my understanding that it wasn't up to scratch
and that FASA is legally obligated to keep the option
on it for something like seven years or some such
crap.
On a side note I'd like to personally thank the
RNer's that have in their own little sections
of Corporate Download acknowledged Australia.
I especially like that Renraku has a large
facility here in Brisbane. My mates and I have
already started trying to work out where it would
be. It's a small mention but it feels good to know
that the world knows we are here.
I'd also like to thank Steve Kenson for the
section on Aboriginal Magic in MiTS.
The only funny thing though is the MiTS entry
that lists Badger as an Australian Aborigine
totem. All the others were fine, they were at
least animals that can be found on the continent :)
Oh well thanks Steve for at least putting it in
and acknowledging it. (I think that Emu, Platypus,
Gecko, Goanna & Kangaroo would personally
have worked better) All in all thanks to everyone
that has listed the largest island in the world
in their writings.

Hmmm now why is Hamish mad?
<insert Tasmanian joke here>
But what the hell do I know. I'm a New South
Wales immigrant living behind enemy lines
in Queensland.
