Just because the STC thinks campaigning is OK doesn't make it OK for this
list; some of us are not members of the STC and are instead members of our
own national organisations. I wish people would realise that the concerns
which dominate -their- corner of the world aren't issues for a lot of others.
Although personally I don't care either way whether its allowed on the list
or not, the decision is for the listowner, not the STC.
Whatever you do, vote for the ALP on March 2nd*. There. Does that mean
anything to you? Should it? Would you like to hear all about the ASTC(NSW) too?
ciao, scot.
*Spaniards: read this as 'vote for Gonzales' (sorry but I can't write that
in Spanish without the assistance of my girlfriend!).
