No odin he's not! We have, last weekend, also had a meeting of 1000 people (you could nominate yourself if you wanted). They went to our capital (Canberra) where they discussed what they felt were important areas that could be improved. The PM and Govt have promised to consider them. Not everyone is totally happy, most of us were impressed though. It was an amazing idea. ... the parliament listening to people, some of whom really were very, very ordinary. And believe it or not some of the ideas were brilliant. This is not democracy-- the attendees were not elected by anyone to represent anyone, just themselves. If you want a model it would be Market Research.
