FSU, I wouldn't expect anyone with a mind like a steel trap, (i.e. Closed)to accept anything he hadn't thought of first, which is not a lot it would seem. It was fairly predictable that you would not wish to spoil an Aussie fable with fact.
As for judging the 'real world' as you so quaintly cliche it, that includes accepting everything you see and hear and using judgement and perception to filter out what you need to know. If you are so narrow in your views as an aviation person then you should perhaps consider a job where others are less dependent on your thought processes?
It seem you have a problem with anything after breakfast! Fortunately, I have enough real world Aussie mates to know that you and your mentality are very much a minority. <img src="eek.gif" border="0">
