[net.misc] Want to move to Australia?

There was a letter in Money magazine that I thought you would
enjoy. A sales manager wanted to know about job opportunities
in Australia because he wanted to move there. He wanted to know
how to get Australian classifieds in this country. Money told
him where to find them, but gave him some information he probably
didn't want. Australia limits immigration and will only issue
working visas to individuals in professions that are in demand.
Which professions are these? Engineering and computer science,
of course! Wouldn't be a bad place to live, except you'd never
see your family again. 24 hours seems like an awful long time
to sit on a plane.

Incidentally, I heard that Australia is one of the few places in
the world where US citizens can go to enjoy a better standard of
living(Switzerland is probably another, but who can afford to 
live in Switzerland except the Swiss).
