19 April 2009: Today's feeling/Blog emotion: Question for Malcolm Turnbull and Australian Liberal Party: Can you cease and desist forthwith from continually speaking arrant and specious tosh? This website and probably a great number of its Australian readers would be enormously grateful if anytime you felt moved to speak on government in Australia, you first gave your remarks a severe anti-tosh test (would a rational person believe a single word?). Until you do so, you will be regarded as merely relentlessly unimaginative refugees from the 1980s, sailing on The Ship of Fools, unable to adapt to something called, a future, the future. Yes, we can, not speak tosh. Yes, we can, speak sense, but only if we think. - Ed

The main purpose of this
website
is to deliver to the
Internet a major history writing/research project - The
Blackheath Connection.
Producing this has been a major exercise, reviewing the history of
convict transportation from England (or, Britain) to North America
1718-1755, and later to Australia from 1786-1810.
Research for this has been undertaken since 1977 – and it
continues.
I refer to this project as a website book, (a
surfable book?) and a detailed follow-up on the period 1810-1865 is now
being completed and is due one day on the Net
If you are attracted to The Blackheath Connection,
prepare for some surprises by
way of discovering a new set of perspectives on the rise of Australia's
convict colonies from 1788!
Various other of my
writings, and various pages arising
from my areas of general interest will also gradually appear on this
domain. So please keep watching...
The history websites on this domain now have a companion website on a new domain, at Merchant Networks Project produced by Dan Byrnes and Ken Cozens (of London).
And in general, please feel quite free to email on any topics you find treated on these websites.
