Don't know how this is (historically), facts, logic,and/or reasoning, and I don't know where I'm accusing anyone of anything.
Seems to me there has been, historically, a reticence to embrace DLS in Qld, and other than the geography lesson that you have quite graciously provided, I haven't ever heard of too many logical or reasoned arguments against it. So, the opinion I am left to run with, is that there is some sort of fear or unfounded opposition to it. Again, just my opinion.
Just wondering, how many reasons based in logic are needed? I met a mother who swore blind women were pregnant for 20 months, she had 3 kids. Some people are just not very bright, Qld doesnt have a monopoly on that. Any issue will have varying points, ranging from those with merit to guano insane. Just look at arguments over speed limits, in the 60's it was about seatbelts. Your statement implies the lack of acceptance of DLS denotes some fear, and its just wrong. We have no need for it, the southern states do.
