Fred, I have the feeling you and I have been talking about different things,
when we say Kiwis. Do you mean emus? When I said about the truck-driver
who, knocking down Kiwis left and right, was living the Australian dream, I
thought you meant New Zealanders. It wasn't much of a joke if you meant
emus.
