What's worse than listening to Cricket on Radio Australia SW.
Watching paint dry is probably more exciting!!


Better than darts or baseball IMHO.

That's not the real news here. The real news is that on December 26 the
worst disaster in 40 years happened practically in Australia's backyard
and what does Radio Australia broadcast instead of their regular current
events reporting? Cricket! Somebody knock some sense into the people in
charge of programming at Radio Australia. For now, I'm getting tsunami
news from the BBC, which is doing a pretty good job.
