Not at all, you chimed in with who the cauldron was made in Australia when it wasnt.
as usual chris summarily dismisses aussie behind the scene contributions to london 2012, not knowing a number of sydney 2000 organisers are helping in london. re cauldron, read this: http://www.australiaunlimited.com/ol...cle/fct-flames

I'm sure there was only one Aussie-born member of AC/DC, but they did get off the ground in Australia though. I think most of them live in Florida now. Not a bad band, but I've never been a massive fan of the "straining on the toilet" vocal style.

Does not matter where someone is born, it's where they grow up and be what they want to be.

Yes even the new lead singer is from England but I must say I have never heard them referred to as British or to be claimed as such.

there also has to be an argument for the nature/nurture theory. Clearly I want my kids to be Australian and other posters clearly want their kids to be English. It has to be what your are exposed to in your home environment to some extent.
