Hey, windtear & 17catherines - have you seen this?

The Government of Australia is banning swords?!?!?

(!) Yikes!

This will make dueling more rare, though.

Dueling?

[joelrosenberg.livejournal.com]

I've never been to Australia in general or Victoria in particular, so I don't know if dueling with swords is really a problem there.

That said, sure, if they do manage to actually suppress sword ownership, Aussies who want to duel and can't find a sword will have to use pointed sticks, chainsaws, koala bears, or vats of bubbling oil.

It's actually a Bujold reference.
