Dear Powdies
Hi. People might be interested to watch PGa's anti-whaling video. It's even got a bit of didge on it:

There's an International Whaling Commission meeting next week, at which the re-introduction of commercial whaling is proposed, ironically in the UN International Year of Biodiversity.
