Ian:

Welcome to BP!  I have a great affection for Australia, having lived there in
-- well, I won't say how many years ago, but long before the Vietnam War
brought perhaps a greater American influence than perhaps is there now.
Somewhere I remember the phrase "The Sunburned Country."  There was much of
England in Australia as I knew it -- in many places a somber and not-so-
sunburned country in its architecture (before the Sydney Opera House). What is
happening with regards to historic preservation/architectural design there
now?
