Earl Douglas Cash (15 July 1919 – 15 February 2002) was an Australian politician.

Life

Born in Manitoba, Canada, he migrated to Australia in 1923, where he attended Perth Boys' School and the University of Western Australia. He was a public servant before serving in the military 1940–1946; on his return he became a businessman. In 1958, he was elected to the Australian House of Representatives as the Liberal member for Stirling, defeating sitting Labor member Harry Webb. He was defeated by Webb in 1961. In 1968, Cash was elected to the Western Australian Legislative Assembly as the member for Mirrabooka, a position he held until 1971. Cash died in 2002.[1]

gollark: Plants should really have solar-powered microcontrollers with cellular/satellite links so they can receive emails.

gollark: I mean, natural ones yes, artificially designed ones I'm fine with. Although any sufficiently short one is probably going to turn up in some organism somewhere through sheer chance, even if it's not doing the same thing.

gollark: I think intellectual property definitely needs reduction. Copyright lasts waaaaay too long, patent weirdness basically stopped 3D printer development for ages, and trademarking-or-whatever "sky" is ridiculous. Also, you can patent some software stuff you probably shouldn't be able to.

gollark: In the UK, though, the situation is mostly that there are various different "ISPs", but they mostly use Openreach's network, which is sort of spun off from BT but not really. Although there are also cable-based ISPs (or, well, at least one?) and in big cities tons of high-speed fibre ones.

gollark: And sometimes cities and such are legally blocked somehow from running their own ISPs.
