Talent quest

Hot on the heels of the latest round of reality shows comes the broadcast request for try-outs for "Australia's Got Talent". If you were inclined to apply, keen to secure your 15 minutes (or less) of fame - what would your talent be? Burping Pi to a thousand digits; reciting the alphabet backwards; or something which takes real talent like juggling chainsaws? And what is talent? Will the show look to humiliate or honour the contestants? Which would produce greater ratings? Hmmm.
