You don't have to give out your personal info if you don't want to:

Minister of Statistics Maurice Williamson admits the New Zealand 2010 Census dress rehearsal is voluntary, but the Census collectors are NOT going to tell the public this so the public will be giving away their personal details when they don't legally have to.

No but come the 2011 and you will. I'll slag Key's Ministers at every oppertunity but in this case I'll give Williamson the benefit of the doubt on the grounds.............that disclosing the 'trial census as volantary is most likely to cause confusion for the 2011 which will be compulsary. I don't see any trickery here...................just some common sense and that's rare with this government

Why don't we invent yet another religion to go alongside Jedi.

Something from Lord of The Rings perhaps? Maybe one of the AONS (Accolytes of Nick Smith). Here's our chance to have an enduring pisstake at something we don't like?

You've gotten away with it, I suspect, through having no fixed abode.
