>prostitution is legal in Sydney if not throughout the rest of Australia<

according to the papers here, they had to ship prostitutes in from 'as far away as Perth' to satisfy Olympian demand.

BTW, those of us not Australian but paying Australian taxes to support Australian gold medals at $40m a pop are delighted that the (first batch of) Olympics are over and that 'News and Sport' is no longer tautologous....

(It's not that I hate the great God Sport, but I prefer a pantheon to monotheism...)
