Have you been there? It’s high country … like Denver.

And Western Australia is more than three times the size of Texas.

And you would be factually wrong

Highest mountain in Texas is Guadeloupe peak (elevation 8751)

As if I give a ■■■■ ?

For all it’s size it can’t even match us for GDP and you have more sheep than people. :joy:

Of course, it’s quite difficult to differentiate between the two. :sweat_smile: :joy: :sweat_smile:

And a mile is 5,280’, GP is almost twice that high.

For the record Texas has recorded 2,192 COVID-19 deaths and Western Australia has recorded 9 COVID-19 deaths.

What is the population of WA?

What is the population of Texas?

When did the virus first hit Texas? During the peak of our annual respiratory virus season.

When did it hit WA? When it was least likely to spread.

Makes you wonder who is doing the HC system ratings :roll_eyes:

What would Texas’s total be if it replicated Western Australia’s per capita rate?

What would a pig be if it ate a turkey?

If Texas had a similar per capita death rate as Western Australia their total would be around 105 to 110.

If a shark eats a turkey will the turkey grow scales and teeth?

That’s an enviable number.

That so-called mountain is a bump on the high country. Elevation does not make the mountain, its the height from the base to the summit. Mt. Kosciuszko summit is a mere 800 meters or so (2625 ft) above the base of the hill.

Unfortunately, Australia has recorded a death from COVID-19 in Victoria in the last 24 hours. Our total is now 103.

Oh? Is that why Alaska is ranked 47th out of the 50 states for education? :stuck_out_tongue:
