<You mean.... New Zealand isn't a Third World country?> PCSTEL, In some ways it isn't. Our murder rate is now up to first world USA standards. You can buy most drugs and people use them. We have nigga rap. The divorce rate and illegitimate baby rate is world class. We have government bureaucracy coming out our ears with safety rules everywhere 'for our own good of course'. Everything is prohibited unless specifically permitted. And of course, we are front line participants in the WAT - we import Afghan terrorists and criminals and others of like mind from Asia and the Pacific Islands to ensure our imprisonment rates, murders, burglary and assault are up to world class standards. AND! We do now have CDMA. How cool is that?!! I am using ADSL on the mainframe now, but will go downstairs and use the notebook with Beverley Hills 80211 link to the mainframe and to cyberspace which arrives at megabits per second. Swanky eh? We wear shoes nowadays too [mostly anyway] and textiles instead of grass skirts. So there! We do have some atavistic tribal behaviour which I prefer not to mention, but for the most part, we can mimic what we see on telly quite well. Mq
