I understood he had 5 donkeys, one he gave away? Anyway, modern history departments only try to show him as a coward, because he jumped ship to Australia to avoid the European War, hindsight hey. Then they show the propaganda which the Aussie Government used at the time to disparage this man. But when push come to shove, he grabbed a stretcher, not a rifle and saved hundreds of...not only ANZACs, but Turks as well.... Avoiding someone else's war isn't cowardice, saving possibly hundreds of people you don't know under machine gun fire is the ultimate bravery. RIP Pvt. JSK

wonder where he is now

All of Australia's going to be forced onto the NBN which includes changing landlines to VOIP after having to *waive* one's customer service guarantee, only those with a fixed wireless connection can choose to keep their copper landline. It's the total monopoly with minimal responsibility Telstra's always wanted, and the fact that people aren't up in arms about it shows how well they've kept it off the public radar, in spite of the plans being set in stone for anyone to see years ago and the amount of negative press about the NBN, which nevertheless avoids this key fact, nevermind that Telstra, through the 'government-owned and Telstra-run' NBNco, now being the ISP to the ISPs adds another layer to the back-and-forth frustrations of dealing with ISPs. When Telstra got privatized they fired a bunch of installers, busted senior technicians down to that job and let the lines rot to save money. Fast forward and Malcolm Turnbull, a day after seeing Rupert Murdoch, announces his "cheaper, better Multi-Technology Mix" (ie, expensively cobbled together out of spare parts) NBN, and instead of NBNco installing the fibre their technicians were trained for at projected cost, Telstra gets the contract to replace their old copper with 'new' copper at far greater expense, a win-win for Telstra and a nonsensical lose-lose for Aussies everywhere. That's just the tip of the iceberg, for just a smattering of 'minor' complaints there's Turdball's yacht co-owning mate he made CEO of NBNco, who got a $1million paycheck and a performance bonus the year it went $15 billion over budget, steadfastly refused to give the government cost figures and bring others who could despite being asked twice, the under-provisioning by ISPs because they're charged far more for bandwidth (CVC) than they can possibly charge their customers, leading to slow-downs at peak times, and as I personally found out, NBN rejecting all faults related to slow speeds on a throttled connection no matter how slow, or 10 kilobits/second in my case, getting half the rated speed or less being dismissed as normal congestion and the rated speed now defined as maximum; it'd take a book to list all of the problems with the NBN!

"watch the lightning crack over cane fields and laugh and think this is asstralia"

Lucky at least you get a choice where I am we got a letter from telstra saying we will be switched over without warning in October 2017 and our adsl2 which is really good probly better then some nbn connections will be disconnected

Ah, Telstra still greedy as usual. Ripped us off for billions when they had the monopoly. Seemed to be with the blessing of the main government parties I might add.

Hope they're better than their ADSL modems, which are fairly ordinary. I was given one, soon swapped back to my Netgear.

You could just sell the modem ;) what are they gonna do about it

I am angry about the fact that Telstra decided to send me out a new NBN modem now that my area is able to get NBN. Because I was with them for ADSL, if I simply plugged it in it would have auto connected and committed me to a 2 year overpriced NBN plan...... Shop around, there are some very good value NBN plans out there........If you have shares in Telstra, by all means plug in the Modem and Auto - Commit .......

Very cute

awesome !
