Unlike the US, Australia has a history of being able to successfully carry 
out eradication in some areas.  It is in our nature to "have a go".  We 
don't run up the white flag before we start.  If we go into this with an 
attitude of not succeeding, then we won't.  While there is still a chance of 
eradication, then our industry will keep trying.
