In 2006, 227,000 Australians visited Indonesia and in 2007 this rose to 314,000.

—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The best road to correct reasoning is by physical science; the way to trace effects to causes is through physical science; the only corrective, therefore, of superstition is physical science.”
—Frances Wright (1795–1852)
