"Australia's population will reach an estimated 23 million people some time tonight.
The
Australian Bureau of Statistics says the projection is based on last
year's population estimate and takes into account factors such as the
country's birth rate, death rate and international migration.It estimates that with a birth every one minute and 44 seconds, a new migrant arriving every two minutes and 19 seconds, and a death every three minutes and 32 seconds, the 23 million mark will be reached just after 10:00pm (AEST)."

In Oz we are a day ahead, so the 23rd in Oz will be the 22nd in the USA for the most part.
A country that large with only 23 million? Wow. And there're plenty of 23 synchro clues here!
ReplyDeleteExciting. Go straya!
ReplyDelete23rd is also St George's Day, whose cross is hidden in the Oz flag. The eastern churches, however, celebrate St George's Day on May 6th.... the day L Frank Baum, creator of Oz, died.
