Happy Australia Day, m8!

Give my best to the Lord Humongous: ruler of the wasteland. The iatolla of rock and roll-a!

On this Austrailia Day I must ask: why is it that so many Austrailian actors do American accents so well (Erick Bana, Hugh Jackman, Sam Niel, etc.) Yet American-born Mel Gibson, despite having now spent several decades back stateside, *still* has hints of the Aussie accent he picked up in his school years?

"Two days ago oye saw a vehicle that could haul that tanka. You wanna get outta heah? You talk to me."

Ha, while on our honeymoon in Australia my wife and I met Sam Neil on the streets of Sydney. He was real cool. I don't think he really has an accent to speak of. At least he didn't have a strong accent when we talked to him.
