Info ?????
This site gives a Pic of the Book and reading the writup info etc looks like he may be in some part of Victoria,as its a signed copy by him??
This may or may not lead to other clues!
I tried the Electoral Roll,but cannot access it unless i have an address ,but if someone went personally then they would be able to use the Puter at the Electoral Office and this would bring up any info on him!
I know as i did a similar think for someone else a while ago in NSW!
Cheers
