Dan WI reckon we have it right in Australia (except for the recent local elections).
Elections need to be a festive occasion; On a Saturday, you visit your local Primary School, buy a sausage for yourself and throw the How-To-Vote cards in the bin.

Peter WilsonBlowing an American friend’s mind with the concept of compulsory voting. I am not going to bother with explaining full preferential voting, an independent electoral commission or using pencils.
Silver DoryTailed leek orchids (Prasophyllum appendiculatum) in heathland, Croajingolong NP, VIC. Regarded as endangered in VIC (rare in NSW) and often only seen after fires. But good numbers out this spring at this location with colour variations ranging from green/brown to darker purple flowers.

Three native hens come up my drive and scare away 12 magpies singing their hearts out.
Hope everyone has their lights off to celebrate Earth Hour tonight.
