[talk-au] place=?

[Stephen Hope]

There is sometimes a difference between what a place calls itself and
what it is.  City of Caloundra, for example, is (was? did it
amalgamate?) the whole shire, not just the town. This includes a
number of different small locations, plus Caloundra itself. Even if
you put them all together, it's not big enough for a city, really. But
they got a charter as a city some somewhere, and god help you if the
mayor hears you call it anything else.  :)
