For instance in the town time forgot, Goulburn, NSW the local primitives have constructed a large concrete merino ram (anatomically correct too). http://members.ozemail.com.au/~arundell/merino.htm The locals obviously worship this icon and have forced young people (threatening them with money) to dress up in a sheep suit and become the sheep god's avatar, who is then set upon by small children. Now I wonder which list member I could be referring to ...........hmmmmmm ;) Cheers
