1. Sulawesi - The Latest Added by: Wade Eakle (weakle@spd.usace.army.mil)

   I'm planning a 2-3 week excursion to northern Sulawesi,
   Indonesia in late Sept to early Oct 1999, via Singapore.
   My main focus will by diving and birding. Any recent
   returnees out there with good info on the situation in
   Manado, as well as any tips on accommodations and dive
   operators, would be greatly appreciated.

   Broadmeadows, Melbourne - always a good bet. And around
   Target/McDonalds in the city centre of Melbourne...good
   spotting.

3. Ringy, Dandy Added by: poider

   Any of the outer suburbs of Melbourne should do. Or any
   city, in fact. But I highly recommend a trip to either
   Ringwood or Dandenong on the outer eastern fringes.
   Apparently the no. of bogans is so high there is a
   separatist movement which aims to create an independent
   Bogan Nation. There will be no capital city, of course, as
   real bogans will only live in suburbia.

5. Unfortunate excess Added by: Adelaide
   [Timestamp: Wed 19 May, 19:07 Tasmanian Standard Time]

   Try Adelaide, most of it! Okay, I realise that not every one
   in Adelaide fits your request but there does seem to be an
   unfortunate excess of bogon types here. Try Hindley St any
   time of day or night, Anzac Highway of a Friday or Saturday
   night, McDonalds or Hungry Jacks on West Tce (particularly
   during the small hours of the weekend), increasingly
   (unfortunatley) Rundle St - although most tend to remain in
   their cars (thankfully) which they drive on a seemingly
   ceaseless loop around the Rundle St/Nth Tce/Pulteney St
   circuit....and I could go on and on and on..Anyway, all your
   dreams will be fulfilled here in a city where Puberty Blues
   lives well and truly on....And many of stay safely at home
   dreaming of bogonfree places far, far away...sigh...
