I run training courses in modelling. Trust me, you'd be surprised at just how inaccurate and how inexperienced a lot of modellers can be. Being modelled by a university can also be code for 'modelling by a student' or 'modelling by an academic who couldn't et a real job'. It could also be a brilliant scientist; just don't discard the first two options.

The ALP, the progressive party, the party of ideas, the workers' friend, is the only Australian political party to roast four young Australians in roof cavities. SHAME! SHAME! SHAME!
