   Cheers for the interview, but is there any chance of a transcript? It just takes so long to get the information listening to something rather than reading it.

   There is an official Paper petition that can be downloaded, printed, signed and sent in the postal mail, the petition has been running for almost 2 weeks, 8,000 signatures have been collected, 20,000 is the goal as the legislation was originally passed from a petition asking for the internet to be censored by 20,000 mis-informed religious activists.

   The cut off date is 15th December, all support is needed to ensure we do this, people do not want this, but the problem is there is a huge media blackout so people have no idea, and what they have heard has been favourable because it has been fabricated by the ‘child porn line’

   This legislation can be refuted, in combination with other tools, we can make our voices heard, it is easier for them to ignore thin air than loads of letters, protests in each city with permits, a paper petition and getting signatures, fact sheets, networking, any media attention, local newspapers and radio stations have a decent hit rate, fact sheets, links to information, and anyting else that will raise awareness and support for this very important infringement on our human rights.
