Germaine Greer - love her or

hate her, she is still Australian as far as I know and she still calls Australia home and you aussies who got offended ought to look at your own offensive behaviour. I agree that it is very impolite to say unkind things about a person who died - any where - let alone in the sudden and tragic circumstances of Steve Irwin. It was not very gracious of her. But who are you aussies who have hijacked our Australian culture from us dinki-di Australians to complain about a true-blue Australian like Germaine anyway? Why don't you start to learn some dinki-di Australian culture yourselves and drop all this aussie behaviour and ignorance. You aussies are the ones who ought to find somewhere else to live so that us fair dinkum Australians can reclaim our heritage. Henry Lawson, Banjo Patterson, CJ Dennis, Waltzing Matilda and everything else belongs to us - not to you aussies. You're as bad as the advertisers who come out to the bush to get some "Australian Looking Scenery". If you love the bush that much why don't you live there - Byrock, Girilambone, Weemalah, Quambone... they're all looking for more people to fill up the houses.
