G�day all,

We Australian lugers are facing a crisis. A recent T.V. current affairs program has cast us in a less than admirable light, branding us as idiots, lunatics and a menace to society. They did cover our point of view to a rather limited extent but nothing about the lengths we go to for safety, or our years of experience. The story is on the program website (http://todaytonight.com.au/stories/264287.html). If you feel like supporting us, consider sending a message of support for us to the �contact us� section of the Today Tonight website (http://todaytonight.com.au/contactus/29924.html). Please be considerate and tactful, perhaps mention the safety aspects of the sport that they neglected to cover.

There is a debate on in Australia at the moment about whether to ban luge entirely. Please help us to regain a respectable and professional image after this media misrepresentation.
