To mark American Independence Day-July 4-residents in a Brisbane retirement village were given hamburgers. Here in Darwin, on this important day for the USA, it was not Uncle Sam calling when the telephone rang- it was a recorded survey for INPEX. You were given the choice of answers to questions about the proposed project which you recorded by pressing the appropriate numbered button.
While on the subject of telephone polls , anybody received a hard to hear call from an Asian lady working for a Melbourne firm claiming to be doing a survey for “the government ” about tourism and travel ? It was the same message as about six months ago .
