Reading the BTF is fine for those who access it but most people rely on the media and take their word for gospel. My sister is a prime example. I have just returned from visiting her in Melbourne and was trying to get her to come to Bali with me in January when she has her holidays but she was so negative about Bali. Her gripe (so many others here in Perth say the same thing) is about what Bali is doing to the Bali 9 but areletting the bombers off almost scot free. She was not interested in how terrific the Balinese are, how beautiful and interesting the countryside is or how much the Balinese need our support. If I could afford it I would be back there now supporting my Balinese friends. Cheers, Stormy
