10 Meter Diver Ban ~ Busselton Jetty Observatory
Dear Comrade
Looks are everything!
Heavens for bid if some one should gaze out of our palace windows and see
such an unsightly erchant as a scuba diver, Shock Horror!
Therefore I propose. we ban divers. Especially the Fat or ugly ones. After
all they obviously astatically detract from the visual delights that await
our paying guests in the new Palace (sorry .observatory) .
Perhaps we can also sanitize the surface appearance of the jetty and only
allow the blue eyed blonds on it. And then there is the car park. Perhaps
motor vehicles above the value of say 30,000 only, then it will be truly
pristine and world class. And a fit place for persons of our standing to be
seen.
After all, what the hell have divers ever done for what is under the jetty
or the where the jetty sits on the list of underwater Tourist attractions.
(Trust me no one will notice if we keep them out of sight or dispose of
them ) Hey we could even get rid of the dive shops and control the dives
our selves. That way we could really care and protect this $ensitive
underwater eco$y$tem. And the Fish . we could train them to pick up the
rubbish that is collected daily from in front of the palace gardens by the
scurrilous rechead diver.
On a serious note we with common sense certainly see your point, we should
stop Hunters entering a national forest for the obvious reason. Hence the
fishing exclusion zone But please let us not decide who or what should or
should not be seen from a window based on the fact that they don't fit into
the esthetics of what management or a particular group finds visually
appeasing, Or who should or should not enter and enjoy what the divers
discovered and introduced to the surface dwellers in the first instance.
I believe the leagle challenges that would follow such a descion have
already been well and truly tried in recent times before our high court.
I assume if a word bubbled to the service from the minority group to which
you are attempting to cull like "sacred site" or "Marbo" there would be a
sudden need for to odd purchase of a packet of "quick eze." Or two.
