        ...and who would realistically expect a New Zealand organisation to use 
an off-shore data trawler to skim NZ content?!

        Am I the only one who sees this at moronic behaviour?!


        On a side note: Can someone please remind me how to block certain IP 
addresses from having ANY access? (Assuming best done in .htaccess)  After more 
than a week of broken sleep thanks to an insomniac baby, I can hardly remember 
which hole in my head to put the toothbrush in each morning!
