Hi Paul and Sue

Still listening. Promise. Just been a wee bit busy with life lately.

I don't know if you have them in England but here in Aus we have a category of crime called hate crimes. So, if you kill someone because you want their money that's one crime but if you kill someone because you don'tlike the colour of their skin or the fact they're gay that's a different crime and according to the law a worse one. I think this is the stupidest approach to the law that I've ever come across...another example of the politics of popularity. I fail to see how a person's motivation for doing something should enter into the crime they are charged with or the sentence they receive. Surely the murdered person is just as dead in both cases. ARRRRRGH

But, as always, there's a Podcast Paul episode to cheer me up and help me forget this sad old world for a while. Hi Ho Hi Ho it's off to to the PMN I go (gotta download the Stellar song).

Cheers, and thanks again
