    I remember reading about this stuff a few years ago, it's the same story - about the polymer (plastic) notes for printing and bribery of people at the Reserve Bank of Australia and people in high places, etc etc. It's been around for years. But suddenly now it's a hot potato. Wonder Why.

    Just a thought...perhaps there was more on board the Malaysian planes than mangosteen and lithium. Maybe lotsa polymer banknotes. Just thinking out loud.

    I should quit being a conspiracy theorist.

    Strange that the Supreme Court of Victoria issued the order when it is a federal matter.
    Even sitting cross vested, the whole thing is strange.
    The court is only a few hundred metres from the Federal Court anyways.
    No idea how they think the Victorian court can bind other states?
    I read the order on wiki leaks.
