Summarize this content to 2000 words in 6 paragraphs Anna McCormack of Goulburn came across this letter regarding the USA in the Sydney Monitor: “The question is, whether the people are to govern through their representatives, or their decisions are to be controlled by the power and money of a great corporation?” The date? September 6, 1834.“With all the recent discussions about high-pitched noises breaking glass (C8), I realised where Kamala Harris went wrong,” surmises Brian Harris of Tamworth. “She needed to ditch the likes of Bruce Springsteen and have opera singers at all her campaign rallies.”Not all school Christmas concerts (C8) are joyful. Pauline McGinley of Drummoyne remembers the time when “one of my kindergarten students explained to his mum that Mrs McGinley knew all about the birth of baby Jesus because she was actually there. I was 27 at the time.”“Our five-year-old came home from preschool to say they were doing a nativity play,” writes David Aston of Coal Point. “He proudly told us his friend Thomas was going to be the star. ‘Oh, he’s playing Jesus, is he?’ we asked. ‘No, he’s the star!’” “Team Trump claims his influence as president-elect brought about the Israel-Lebanon ceasefire,” notes Warren Menteith of Bali. “Can C8-ers confirm that a similar thing happened when he used his future influence to convince Noah to build the Ark?” Maybe ask Pauline McGinley? Apparently, she was there.Another treasure from Trove: Peter Egan of Mosman conveys “A big thank you to Geoff Carey (C8) for bringing the National Library of Australia’s online publication of the NSW Surveyor General’s 1881 Map of the Country Around Sydney to our attention. The map was drawn by Lieutenant Thomas Parrott and photo-lithographed and printed in February 1882. The original is 102 cm by 73 cm, which has allowed the NLA to create a gigantic 319 MB TIFF image file.” On viewing the map, Geoff warned inner westies of a future toll, but Joanna Mendelssohn of Dulwich Hill has found a detour: “I don’t know where the toll roads were located in Newtown, but Liberty Street, Enmore was so named as it was a route that avoided any toll.”More weasel words (C8) from Jim Dewar of Davistown, who thinks “That’s a very good question” really means “You’re not going to get a very good answer” and “I think you’ll find I’ve already answered that question” means “I’ve no idea what you’re talking about.”[email protected] attachments, please.
