Good on you Sam.

i think if we were all asked nicely to fill in the census most of us
would.  What i don't like is being told 'Fill it in or it'll be a $200
fine + $20per day that you don't!!'

I think the governmet allready takes quite enough of my money, so
instead of making a martyr of myself i'll be converting to JEDI :)

Praise be to Jedi
