all fake? Hundreds of women fleeced by Australia's ultra sound ogre.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
Yeah, she's taken that invention and run with it.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
I think that what she was doing as well, they
just had She just had a loop of gmeric one generic.
Speaker 2 (04:24):

Speaker 1 (04:37):
Number three of the top Australian inventions the cochlear implant,
very very very impressive. Number two is Google Maps.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
I did not know that.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Nother did I. So when Laura Bingles said, wear the
bloody hell are you say? We'll have a look?
Speaker 2 (04:50):
Why don't you google it?
Speaker 1 (04:52):
Don't you google it? Number one?
Speaker 2 (04:53):
Number one? Here we go wi fi whoa wolls. I
think we sort of made it, we adapted it.
Speaker 1 (05:01):
Yeah, I think Csiro did.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
They came up with it and there wasn't a painting
on it, but we kind of semi nicked it. But
we have such in a nept government here. They didn't
get behind it. So they get behind other stupid stuff
like appreciate the Sunday.
Speaker 1 (05:18):
Excuse me, that's my favorite day of the year.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
They didn't get behind the stuff that we should.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
Have well, I think just didn't see a Ciro invent that.
And then they sold it, I think to.
Speaker 2 (05:29):
A patent company. And then now the clever country, we
came up with a better way of doing it.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
Because Australia, the whole thing for us, necessity is the
mother of invention.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
When Australia was so far away from the world.
Speaker 3 (05:41):
We're importing American cars, English cars here, and they went
suited to Australian conditions. And also it wasn't like the
old days where you get a giant ship to bring
the cars. They could only bring so many cars, so
we had to make our own cars. So that's why
Holden and Ford and Toyota all came out of Australia.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
Then what happened. The big ships.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
Bring all those cars in and then all of a
sudden the Australian said, oh, you know, I'm not into
the Holden the Fords anymore, so we don't make them here.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
You know what, You know how they have things that
fall of the back of a ship, like the be
a big oil slick or something. Why don't cars and
luxury jewels ever come off the back of a ship
and wash up on our beach.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Well, you don't. Once the cargoes in the water, it's
not good for it.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
But still you don't ever see them washed up on
a beach. Remember that, Why isn't there a Tiffany box
washed up on the beach.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
The car isn't just going to wash up on a
beach you know that cars and water don't mix.
Speaker 1 (06:29):
Do they sink?
Speaker 2 (06:29):
Yes, of course they sink.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
Remember that when you're following Google Maps to Haven a
boat ramp because you think it's.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
It's Australian invention.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
