31. A.D.R.A.Q. - Alliance for the Detection of Reptilian-humanoid Activity in Queensland 
A.D.R.A.Q. is an organisation founded on the Terrestrial Reptoid Hypothesis as first outlined by UFO scientist John Rhodes.
A.D.R.A.Q. believes that several factors indicate a real possibility that a reptilian-humanoid race have descended from the dinosaurs and are residing on Earth in this day and age.
Rhodes' theory states that this race would most likely exist in remote deserts and vast lands where human inhabitance is scarce.
Queensland, Australia fits this description perfectly and we at A.D.R.A.Q. would like to see government funding towards universities and other research institutions in further investigating this theory and its relevance in Queensland.
32. Daylight Saving for QLD "The Smart State"
In Brisbane it gets dark at 6pm, the time when most people come home from work. Many other countries around the globe operate Daylight Saving Time (DST) to ensure that there is more light in the day when people need it the most.
Some countries operate DST all year round, others chose to move the clocks forward during the summer months to let people enjoy the daylight in the evening but Queensland and the South East Corner in particular do neither.
So we have a situation where Sydney and Melbourne despite being further East that Brisbane move their clocks an hour ahead in the summer, This makes it very difficult for anyone who has to do business with the southern states.
Anna Bligh, the new premier of QLD has decided that she will not be looking at DST, despite the majority of people who would like to see it introduced. We say this is wrong and undemocratic to have the needs of the minority in the north overrule the needs of the majority in the south.
33. Changing Rooms For Surfers Paradise Beach Queensland
As described at www.SurfersParadiseBeach.com there are no changing rooms on or near the beach.

Update: January 21, 2007
CONVICTED drug trafficker Schapelle Corby has said Christmas was an unbearable time for her, but that she hoped to return home soon under a prisoner exchange deal.
Corby, 29, is serving a 20-year sentence in Indonesia's Kerobokan prison for smuggling 4.1 kilograms of cannabis into Bali. The Queenslander maintains her innocence.
In an article for New Idea, Corby laments her first Christmas alone. "I may wear make-up and I may look OK, but I'm not OK," she says. "The pain some days, especially around Christmas, is unbearable."
Just before Christmas, Corby and fellow Australian inmate Renae Lawrence had their sentences reduced by one month for good behaviour.
.............................................
Update: January 21, 2006
SCHAPELLE Corby's fate could lie with Indonesia's president after the country's highest court rejected her appeal against her drug smuggling conviction and reinstated her original 20-year jail term.
Indonesian Supreme Court Chief Judge Mansyur Kartayasa says:
"We reject the appeal from Corby and grant the prosecution application to cancel the high court verdict and uphold the Denpasar District Court verdict."
....................................................
UPDATE: October 12, 2005.
Corby to fight on after jail term is only cut by 5 years.
Lawyers for convicted drug smuggler Schapelle Corby have vowed to take her legal battle to Indonesia's highest court after a Bali appeal court cut only five years from her original 20-year jail term.
.....................................
Schapelle Corby has been detained in a Balinese prison and now awaits sentencing from a panel of judges on whether she will be committed to the death penalty, by a firing squad, for allegedly attempting to import four kilograms of cannibis into Indonesia.
It is disgusting and barbaric in this day and age that a 'death penalty by firing squad' law exists, and that an Australian citizen should be subject to it. This law is out-dated and inhumane, and considering that Convicted terrorist Abu Bakar Bashir has only been sentenced to two years and Six months jail (with the prospect of appeal) for his proven 'conspiracy' participation in the Bali bombings that killed 183 people, in the same country, it is inconsistent and absurd that another person should face the death penalty for allegedly smuggling cannabis into the country.
Furthermore, the Australian Government and airlines should be taking more responsibility for this incident in any case, since it is the fault of The Australian airlines/airport that the drugs even left Australia in the first place - which also leaves us to ponder on the security and possible internal corruption of staff working at Australian airports, in light of drug smuggling and terrorism.
Hey guys if you love Millsy and you live in Queensland please sign this petition to gt Mr Robert Mills to Queensland!
43. A 5 Year Freeze on Genetic Engineering
The Tablelands GeneEthics Network formed 18 months ago with the aim of freezing the growth of gene modified crops across the Atherton Tablelands region of North Queensland for a period of 5 years.
In this time a moratorium can allow for proper investigation of the affects of Gene Modified crops in relation to health, environment & industry.
A forum held in Atherton on the 26 March 2001 drew an audience of close to 500 residents to listen to speakers from the Organic farming association, Queensland DPI, Monsanto & Consumer food network.
A questionnaire on the night showed that 89% of attendees agreed to a 5 year moratorium on the Atherton Tablelands.
44. Allow Druidism in Queensland
I, Dar, am High Priest of an 'underground' Druid group called the 'Badhbh Catha Fellowship'...I have been stopped from expanding due to the Queensland Government banning me from having a public meeting. Now I'm asking your help, sign the petition, allow the Human Rights to do they're job...
A local Queensland farmer recently refused a damage mitigation licence to kill flying foxes by means of an electrical grid system is attempting to overturn the decision. If successful this will allow farmers to use this method widescale and will result in long painful deaths for not only flying foxes but also possums, gliders and night flying birds.
