ABIX via COMTEX) -- The latest "Lonely Planet" guidebook cautions visitors to outback Australia against causing unwitting offence to Aboriginal people. Visitors are advised not to wrinkle their noses when encountering body odours, not to be too demanding in conversation, and not to drive too fast and raise dust at Aboriginal communities. The advice is contained in a section on cross-cultural etiquette.
