[Boatanchors] Electrolytic Reforming Time

[Geoff]

While spending close to a year in Australia in the mid 80's with side 
business to NZ I found very, very little of the pompous attitude expressed 
by one on here. I also learned several local expressions for that type that 
I best not mention here.

Long before that while in the USN I enjoyed many co visits in foreign ports 
with the Aussies. The only trouble we both got into was with the pompous and 
often unsufferable Brits.

I still cant understand how any human can tolerate Vegemite however (-;
