    I was working on some software recently that dealt with postcodes and the Australian bit actually has its own postcode, just in case you want to send something there :-):rolleyes:

      Who can blame them? I mean, who wouldn't want to stake a claim on a big chunk of 98% ice and 2% barren rock? :) - Mike

        I guess owning that much ice must be a big boon to bartenders and drink industry.. :rolleyes: -- Gott weiß ich will kein Engel sein.

          Heh, I should post something to an antarctic address to see if they actually deliver. And if they don't, I could sue them. Muhahahaha! Oh wait. Australia isn't the US. :sigh: -- Gott weiß ich will kein Engel sein.

                There are no claims from 90° W to 150° W, maybe we at CP could claim that ice. ! :-) Regardz Colin J Davies
