NSW already is "number one" if the contest is "highest premiums" after all. Zebee

They can reply as fast as they like, all you'll get is a promise to do better when you vote for them, and some rubbishing of the incumbent, blaming them for all of the woes of the status quo. I wouldn't go ticking it off as a great achievement just yet, it's not as though the opposition member who replied to you actually has any power to change anything. Nev.. '08 DL1000K8
