Dear All,

A nice insight into Australian understanding of
the sun was reported in Monday's Daily Telegraph
here in the U.K...

  Western Australia began a daylight-saving
  experiment last December ... largely to see
  whether it would lead to the energy savings
  forecast by the light lobbyists.

  In January one housewife in Perth tried to
  sue the state government.  She was seeking
  compensation ... because the extra hour of
  daylight would fade the pattern on her
  curtains.

Hey, wouldn't I just love to be brought in as an
expert witness in such a case?  I would happily
appear for either side or, indeed, both sides!
