Hi Rob and all,

Please do not be surprised. It is a custom for managers in government
institutions and semi-government ones to get a substantial rise in pay
if they can make 'redundant' as many jobs as they can. I know by
bitter experience and this has been going on 10 years ago! So what
happened to good old Sol did not surprise me the least. He is retiring
very richly at our expense, really.

>From what I can see, Telstra was killed by the government many years
ago, and no amount of kicking will get the beast up its feet. It is
only a corpse now. Unfortunately, and to my sadness, those waiting for
the burial to be completed are all foreign owned companies. And boy,
do I have a problem with this ...

Regards,

Philippe Chaperon
