[edit] Statement on 2006 loss

Does anyone know what basis MHS puts on his statement that 2006 was the lowest Liberal result since World War 2? Looking at Question 19 on http://www.seo.sa.gov.au/apps/uploadedFiles/news/276/SEO_QA06_13feb06.pdf the closest the Libs came is in 1938 where based on a 39 seat assembly, the Libs won 15 seats (with 12 ind and 1 single tax league mind you)? Or is he talking about the 33% primary vote where Labor got 26%? I'd like to know which election MHS may be referring to and on what basis the claim is made... Timeshift 08:09, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Free image

I have an event with Mr Hamilton-Smith today, so I'll try and take a freely-licensed photo. It might be a bit difficult, but here's hoping :)--cj | talk 00:55, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

No such luck, unfortunately. Maybe another time...--cj | talk 15:40, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

Anyone in his area want to call him and ask for a photo op? :P Timeshift (talk) 00:39, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
