“Students Without Borders was inspired by several recycling programs and additional and support learning initiatives by Gerry Georgatos, now the current Murdoch University Guild of Students Manager. These initiatives were further developed during the last three years by Gerry Georgatos and in liaison with partner organisations. At Murdoch University, the Murdoch Guild in kind supported the establishment of a Murdoch chapter. One of these initiatives, begun from within Gerry‘s family home, the now famous Students Without Border program, the 8BALL computer program, and because it was grassroots and non bureaucratic, went on to become one of Australia’s most voluminous recycling programs. Hence with this inspiration Gerry Georgatos went on develop further programs, predicated by social justice and community development, and brought them under the banner of Students Without Borders.”

The Hyundai Accent is the current times answer to Datsun 120Y, in both ubiquity and povvo spirit.

This also includes the 1990s Excels, which were but rebadged Accents in some markets, like Australia.
If they were available in chocolate brown (as the 120Y certainly was), they’d be nicknamed “cockroaches” like the 120Y hatchback was. Like the ‘roach, they had a flat profile, were a form of (automotive) pestilence and yet remarkably hard to kill.
Or maybe owing to the curvy shape of the 1994-1999 model, they should perhaps be called “dung beetles”.

Are you still in the hunt for an America’s Cup numberplate? Where I shop, there’s a Telstar with one on it.
A bit rare nowadays, them plates.
Speaking of automotive appliances, on of my former colleagues got around in a metallic tan Kia Rio, which looked almost a dead ringer of the vacuum cleaner we used, same colour too. And like their close relatives at Hyundai, I’m sure those Rios are about as dynamically involving as that said household appliance.
Almost as exciting as the ultimate whitegood on wheels, a white Camry.

I’d love to put a new catchphrase onto the WA numberplates, which have got by without slogans since about 1992 (last ones being “The Golden State”, à la California). I’m thinking, “WA: State Of Vibrancy”. Recalls the heady excitement of the late 70s and early 80s, but with a theme more au courant.
Any other suggestions from other Worsters out there? If (almost) every other state and territory can have one, why can’t WA have something at least equally lame?

Gerry is someone who sways between cynicism and optimism, but ultimately believes in perseverance and its resultant industries.
Gerry‘s passions are conversation, debate, working to outcomes through reason and logic. Gerry admires many of Socrates’ much heralded virtues, such as the pursuit of ‘what is right’, whether Socrates really existed or not. (emphasis added)
