Who nOZe?

[Max Sawicky]

Dangerous stuff mate - It is a New Zealand Maori custom called a Hongi and
not to be taken lightly. People here are real sensitive about Maori culture
and not being mistaken for aussies,
NB
Oz = Australia
Aussie = Australian
Kiwi= New Zealander (yes I know that its silly to have a stupid flightless
nearly extinct bird for your national emblem, I've always viewed it as a
metaphor for our economy and at least its better than a sheep).
We take a lot of ribbing from the Australians regarding sheep, our alleged
intimate relations there with and our earthquakes but at least we arent
Tasmanians.

Thanks for the briefing.  I thought the
'z' in OZ signified NZ.  Australia and
New Zealand, two loving neighbors, rather
than feuding ones.
