Somebody finally gets it

Australian Jeffrey Lee is the last surviving member of the clan that controls the Koongarra uranium deposit near Kakadu National Park (east of Darwin). Australian law requires his permission for the French energy company Areva to extract the estimated 14,000 tons, perhaps worth the equivalent of $4.2 billion. But Lee vouches never to sell because "if you disturb that land, bad things will happen. He told the Sydney Morning Herald in July, "This is my country. I'm not interested in money. I've got a job. ... I can go fishing and hunting. That's all that matters to me." ¦
