AJP Taylor out of Context

[highlyeccentric]

Today, at lunch, we discussed AJP Taylor.

Reena: Yep. First world war, second world war, anything else that had anything to do with war- train timetables. All happened because of train timetables.
Me: Well why isn't Australia in a state of civil war then, given the state of our train timetables?
Reena: It's not all of Australia...
Me: Well, just New South Wales then. I reckon we could get a nice insurrection together over the plan to close down the Newcastle rail corridor. Add some Sydneysiders to that...
Tess: We could have a great insurrection, but not a full on war. Everyone would be on our side- except possibly Morris Iemma.
Me: Ok then. Lets conduct a coup!
Tess: you could call yourselves the Coochee-Coochee army... and have the Coochee-Choochee Coup!
