Virtual Australia Silly Questions

Just to get things started, I thought I'd share this link to a site called Virtual Australia. Very funny page. They're actually a real tourism infosite, but they get asked a lot of silly questions about Australia; apparently people think we have hippo racing in Aus, and that milk isn't available all year round!

I can just imagine the poor site editors being inundated with these questions, until they finally got sick of them and started posting them here. Ha ha… enjoy!
