I though the whole tooth thing sounded serious enough.

experienced car thieves always smash a REAR window so they don't have to sit on broken glass to drive it off.
I am sure you were this wise.
I'm waiting for the detailed version of the window-breaking exercise, PC. The short version at LP was pretty impressive just for a taster.
Re Windschuttle: our server has discovered over the last few days what a link from the SMH, the Age and the Oz on the same day means. Jacques deserves a medal for managing to somehow keep us online.
Doorbitch: coase; entirely appropriate, of course.
