Fascinating... the domain <greater.sydney> is hosted by Amazon Technologies who
own 54.192.0.0 - 54.207.255.255. Lucy seems to be outsourcing & offshoring the
website in the best traditions of her kind. What will Sydney, Nova Scotia ever
do?
The plan for Sydney sounds exactly like something I saw advertised in a tourism
magazine back when the third runway at Sydney KSA was being pushed by a tourism
body and Bob Hawke ("I don't care how many people were at the Opera House, the
third runway is going ahead"). I believe Hawke has form here as he was also a
leading lobbyist for an American company promoting an Australian dump for
global nuclear waste. What a man.
Anyhow, the tourism lobby of the time saw a planning zone around the central
city and eastern suburbs pushing out to some of the leafy northern suburbs -
that would be the tourist theme park. The honest workers would be located
towards Parramatta, and the "deplorables" down around Campbelltown.
