Australia Post security?
I received a package from Australia today, bearing the label "Delayed for compliance with Aviation Security Regulations," signed Australia Post. It had not been opened, so I'm curious whether anyone might know what this actually means.
(X-rays? Random? Just delayed on general principles? I had an identical shipment about a week before--excessive traffic of Al Jolson's complete Brunswick recordings between Smythesdale and Chicago raising red flags? Will there be a knock at the door when "Entertaining with Kerr" arrives?)

Well, what was in the package?
Anything tasty?
If it was Vegemite, then it has to sit in quarentine(sp?) to make sure it will not increase in mass before leaving Oz.
Only so much Vegemite is allowed out of Australia each year and since it *is* brewer's yeast
and can expand/grow on its own, one must be certain it is truly inactivated.
