    anyone know of a free web based newsreader? have to be web based
    cause of work firewall. I use google at the moment but that has about
    a 1 day lag.

    The lie:
    "We won't just automatically click our heels and follow the Americans."
    John Howard, September 2002
    The facts:
    But one year earlier John Howard offered George Bush a blank cheque just
    two days after September 11, 2001 when he said: "I've indicated
    Australia will provide all support that might be requested of us by the
    United States in relation to any action that might be taken."

    He was referring specifically to www.talkaboutmotorcycles.com I think JL.
    Sounds like a motorcycle specific website.. they're not likely to mirror
    aus.crocheting... Marty has to go to another server for that.

    Thanks Nev, interestingly enough, even though you posted that at 2pm it
    wasn't on the google listing when I posted my "just realised what you
    meant" enlightment at 5pm - I guess that proves the original poster's
    point :)
