A general clarification ( posting, Saturday 19th May 07 at 0900hrs Queensland time)

Friends, just to tidy up several aspects that may otherwise cause confusion.
In Australia, the day & date shown for when the Posting occur ed is USA time and date!!!!(a later day than in Australia) of particular use for those wishing to know exactly where we are and when, or to contact us!!
Due to not having broadband outside of the Central Business District, despite Telstra advertising
we are reducing the resolution of some photos to reduce upload times which are around 30 minutes for a 2MB image. The latest posting is always the top one, and after the bottom of the current window, to see what has gone before, including the 2006 trip, it is necessary to access "ARCHIVES" which is indicated to the left of the window, and available with some left "clicking"
So if a photo may have some particular merit that would be enhanced if enlarged, then we will upload in high resolution, if normal or reduced resolution adequately displays the item intended, then in will be in a lesser degree of resolution which will not enlarge satisfactorily, nor be suitable for printing. That is at the locations we only have connection through CDMA mobile telephone .
(currently, most of the locations)
Now if you are wondering why we are not using "Next G " it is because even as recently as yesterday, Telstra Country Wide, at Mt Isa, cannot assure us that "Next G" is everywhere that CDMA is !!!!!!! So much for running Australia's Telstra from Mexico????????????????????????
