Quote:You should have said 'world culture'. Are you a bit upset with my comments?
Upset? At what? I said "Australian culture " because that's what I meant. It's a matter of degree.
EG: "Australia; the only country in the world where the word " academic" is used frequently as a term of abuse" (Dame Leonie Kramer,Australian writer and academic)
Addendum: In Australia the words "academic" and "intellectual" are treated as interchangeable.
