Wooden escalators just aren't cricket
My dog goes with me everywhere - on trains buses and planes, into my doctors surgery, and the nice restaurants to which my wife entices me. She's a guide dog mate. But there are two places she does not go- in two of the busiest railway stations in Sydney. The wooden "heritage" escalators at Town Hall and Wynyard. Why doesn't she go there?

Social Justice Report 1998 : Introduction: A Handful of Soil
The removal of the children from Wave Hill by MacRobertson Miller aircraft was accompanied by distressing scenes the like of which I wish never to experience again.
