| 21 | I think you're right.... sadly. | Who won the Cold War? |
| 22 | I think they work for some things and not for others. Essential oils in the bath help to relax or to soothe tired muscles; it's not hard to believe that. | On a scale of 1 to 5 (1=Not strongly at all, 5=Very strongly), how strongly do you believe in the healing powers of aromatherapy? |
| 23 | I wouldn't do it. | If you could kill someone without any resistance and without any emotional, spiritual, or consequential repercussions, who would it be and why??? |
| 24 | Huh? My SO. | What/who would you pick if you had to pick one thing to live alone with the for rest of your life? |
| 25 | I don't think it's a matter of "should".... I, personally, would prefer our flag (I'm Australian) to exist without the Union Jack on it, but I think this is a decision that should have a referendum and (if the referendum was a fair and honest one) I would respect the views of my country's citizens. I think we should be willing to let our flag change as our country changes... Unfortunately, the alternative flags that have been proposed are not great... | Should Australia and New Zealand remove the Union Jack from their flag? |
| 26 | If anyone is interested, this website has a whole lot of images of entries to the Australian Flag Design competition: http://www.ausflag.com.au/new/index.html | Should Australia and New Zealand remove the Union Jack from their flag? |

| 28 | I'm not sure... I really like ones that have the Southern Cross in them. Most of the variations with the Southern Cross appeal to me; I really missed seeing the Southern Cross in the sky when I lived on the other side of the sky (!). It's nice too, that both Australia and New Zealand have a Southern Cross, because we are like "sister-countries" in a lot of ways. The kangaroo is a good Australian symbol, but I'm worried that if we put it on the flag, no-one will let us eat them any more! | Should Australia and New Zealand remove the Union Jack from their flag? |
| 29 | There's not really any neccessary connection between leaving the Commonwealth and having the Queen as Head of State. A number of Commonwealth countries do not have the Queen. What's the difference between the Union Flag and the Union Jack? | Should Australia and New Zealand remove the Union Jack from their flag? |
| 30 | Cute article! Yep, the Southern Cross is a constellation visible only in the Southern hemisphere. You an always use it to find North if you're lost, and if you can remember how! :-$ I really really do like kangaroo meat. It tastes a bit like venison, and is very popular here (our supermarket keeps running out). It's low in fat, and a good source of iron for people like me who hardly ever eat meat. I actually think it's quite good from a philosophical point of view, because they're better for the land (softer feet) and are a pest, so from an environmental point of view, kangaroo is free-range red meat!  I'm not sure why people get so "het up" (as my grandmother would say) over kangaroo culls. They are very tightly controlled by government legislation (see http://www.ogme.com/kangaroo/fieldpro.htm). Part of the reason is that kangaroo has only been licenced for human consumption in some Australian states within the last 10 years so I think people are still getting used to it. In South Australia, where I come from, it's been legal for ages... | Should Australia and New Zealand remove the Union Jack from their flag? |
