Culturally you’re closer to Vancouver than Vancouver is to Newfoundland…

Welcome from Vancouver!

My Aussie Shepherd dog is named Adelaide, Addie for short

@toglhot ! Welcome ! A good friend of mine is from Adelaide - haven’t seen him in years but a real great guy! Australia would be my only bucket list place to visit. Hopefully you find this site as great we do!!

Welcome from the Great Lakes area of Canada.
Consulted on a project in Melbourne, visited Sydney & Cairns years ago.
Still milling and drilling in my basement shop.

Of course you are allowed. Just no politics or religion is allowed here.

Most Canadians think that a hole down through the center of the earth comes out in China. It doesn't. From where I am it comes out off the SE coast of Australia. Without checking, I think the opposite of most of Canada is south of Australia someplace. It's no wonder we think of you as down under and upside down!

Is that the Indian ocean or the Antarctic ocean?
I believe it is still within the Indian ocean, but an only 95% certain. I didn't check to see if the hole comes out north of 60 degrees south latitude.

interesting tidbit, the Antarctic ocean no longer exists. It was renamed the southern ocean a couple of decades ago or so. It only extends out from Antarctica

Suddenly everything is clear as mud.

I did not know that the Antarctic ocean was so recently eliminated. No wonder the ozone hole is going away.....

The opposite of Toronto is definitely north of 60 south.

Why did you pick 60?
