I totally agree Dazz. And using the forums to let each other know of the media's uneducated gaffs, so we can write in and publically re-educate them through comments is probably our best line of defence.
I think that, statistically speaking, fishing and then bushwalking are our most dangerous leisure activities. Surfing seems to have it's share of injuries, disappearances and shark attacks too.........

| By the numbers fishing is the most deadly "sport" in Australia. |

Maybe a bumper sticker that says:
"Quad riding is safer than fishing"

So any Quadriding Fishos out there obviously have a deathwish.

| Sounds a bit like 1986 when they banned trikes, it's not the machine that is dangerous it is the operator. |
