Yet another story of an Australian animal - in a Christmas tree

Family in South Australia find live koala in their Christmas tree

So, this must be the year of the koala, then, eh?

[GeoffW]

I don't think this year has been the year of the koala drink however.

It hasn't been a koala tea year.

While we should raise praise that no-one (as yet) has called Daphne a "Koala Bear", we should be aware of at least one of the Related Stories (same page!)

I'm dumbstruck how they could have missed that!

I'm dumbstruck how they could have missed that!

I blame it all on this internet advertising. It's everywhere. Almost every page I open, there's advertising. I can't stand it!..
No, sorry, hang about, I went a bit off the tracks there.
Let's start again.

I blame it all on these computers. Everything is computerized nowadays.
Even plagiarism.

The computerization, or rather handing over tasks to computers, is part of the problem. When a programmer's algorithm has to decide what stories are "related", even the best of us (Ahem!) lands in trouble.
There is, in short, not only a serious lack of human proofreading, but in terms of aggregated news (when a "page of news" is a kaleidoscope window) a near-impossibility of human proofreading.
