What's so offensive on the site? I'm Australian too, and I reckon this law eats
shit...A friend of mine had to remove his site because it had instructions to
making
speed and growing magic mushrooms...so "they" took him away to some desert
island
off the coast called "Absolom"...never to be seen again...
