Can't link to the Times article which informed me of this, but I kneel at the feet of, and worship, the unarguable awesomeness of this fella.

The chances of someone in Holland knowing that a guy in australia was looking for his son but didn't know where he was, are minute. The e-mail must have been from someone who knows the mother and knows what she did.
I, too, salute both the father and the e-mailer.

Kudos, indeed.

But they only found that they could due to allround general fukkyouness of this guy when it came to his boy.

The link not the best. He also set up a site, and 'missing australian child' or similar returned as #1 on Google, hence the email.

So nice he found him, I remember when this story first came out, surprised it took so long to track them down!

Amazing. Goes to show his determination and perseverance. I too bow at his courage and am happy that he has finally found his son. This is the type of stuff you only expect in movies.

Good man. With my recent split due to general SWT behaviour, the thought of never being able to see one's child again really scares me.
