  "account": "August 10, a new selection of reader emails was published in the newsletter. Christine Wright expressed her concern about the lack of emphasis on practical skills, trades, art, and music in education. She questioned why so much focus is placed on academic achievement when students have diverse learning styles. Bob Holderness-Roddam, from Tasmania, recalled a previous warning about the growing disparity in car sizes between large SUVs/4WDs and smaller vehicles. His concerns, first raised around two decades ago on ABC Radio National's Ockham's Razor program, have sadly materialized.",
