I asked on list many months ago about what people wanted to see happening in the telecommunications space and was swiftly moderated, perhaps I didn't phrase the question properly.<br>

This list has a consolidated wealth of experience with key knowledge on what and how would be the best mechanisms and methods to implement positive change through adapting technology with our demographics, and I'm still interested to hear your professional opinions should you wish to share them constructively.<br>

<br>
</span><span> I would love to be a independent senator with some serious clout in<br>
the upper house and not be tied to party lines!<br>
<br>
I'm in same boat as you without a family of my own/ kids (and am<br>
single) aswell as being in a top tax bracket......One of the forgotten<br>
Australians...<br>
<br>
I've been thinking lately what a tilt at the senate would cost....<br>
<br>
Many Thanks<br>
<br>
