It is expanding the argument, so to speak.. one of the
grumbles (not posted) is the loss of habitat (for
locals) as whole areas have to be regulated to control
the terrorists. With regulation comes enforcement, with
enforcement comes loss of access to a whole raft of
traditional pleasures for locals.. things that MADE the
Country what it is, for those living there.
That's what "tourism" does, eats away at vibrant
societies.
One hiccup and they (terrorists) leave the nest in
droves.. an empty shell all that remains.
There was a "shot across the bows" for Cairns with that
pilots strike back in '91(?). Cairns (and others) took
5years and a whole lot of work to get recovery
happening, still isn't complete, really :-]

The common bomber is shown here as "March Fly
(Tabanidae family )". These are the brown guys with
green eyes, maybe 3/4 of an inch long and 3/8" wide.
Except for the coldest months they are with us all year
around. But come October their cousins turn up.. at
1.5" long and better than 5/8" wide they have the bite
of a bush pig..!
Lucky they move rather slow so are easy to kill by
hand.. you need a tennis racket though,, more for
quantity than hitting power<bg>
As school kids we use to stick pins in their ring and
tie them to our hats... as fans in the heat... true
story <g>
The RSPCA would ban that practice today.. see what I
mean about "loss of habitat" in regulation????
