    AFAMyDbK, the clod is "insensitive". I hope not to be considered insoylent by pointing this out.

    Maybe the clod is trying (or not trying) to lose weight?

    Not to mention that down-under the season is still call "autumn".
    Probably because most of the eucalyptus species aren't deciduous [wikipedia.org], so there's nothing to fall.

      Nono - "fall" is accurate, given the quantity of rain in Queensland...

        How accurate is "fall" for the... say... Flinders range?

      We don't have eucalyptus trees in New Zealand, you insensitive clod!

      We also call it autumn.

      Most of our trees are also evergreen.

        Want some? (the snow gum [wikipedia.org] may do fine)

        On another line, I must object on the 'insensitive' accusation (everything else is fine, though).
        You see, we took Russell Crowe from you: I wish we wouldn't [wikipedia.org], but you should appreciate the goodwill gesture.
