I don’t see why all streetlights aren’t purple.

New Zealand has a case like this every few years also, usually to do with JW's and their fear of blood transfusions. But the courts are relatively sensible about them. The major thing that pisses me off is that when a child dies often the parents aren't prosecuted because people are saying "Haven't they suffered enough?" Wrong thinking in my opinion.

The Aussies will be glad that something is eating cane toads though. Much of the evolution has been towards avoiding them – snakes developing smaller mouths so they can't swallow them for instance.
