  1. not at all, nut i'm all in favour of doing something if only to reduce pollution, wanton destruction of the planet and deletion of finite resources the issue is not to do something but HOW one does something and responsibly managing the impact /transition
  2. riveting revelation from the afl
  3. as if the afl/mrp would ever be consistent - ha
  4. i once had an old vinyl record with a defective track. it just went on and on and on i finally relocated it to the circular file
  5. no harry taylor or henderson
  6. wonder if they will get monash to do a study on the impact of sports betting ......oh, wait a minute
  7. meanwhile..................Siberian cold front sweeps across Europe, bringing record low temperatures shhhhh........................
  8. *melanotin melatonin is used for sleep disorders sorry for being [censored] - lol
  9. they are trying (maliciously) to somehow just link it (social damage) to afl club owned pokies. ...big fat LOL number of mentions in press and repeated on radio. media happy to just bait the afl rather than any attempt at rational analysis
  10. maybe not on the ability, but maybe on the desire. when you add up all the devils some people reach a tipping point. like a rotting apple
  11. it will be strange indeed if the afl ever stop clubs owning pokies (only to be sold to someone else) if they don't at the same time sever all support for and acceptance of money from the (growing) sports gambling industry for the latter they could actually have some impact but on the former they would just transfer it to some other owner i don't gamble nor support the gambling industry but i don't see how divesting of poker machines is any more than plain old window dressing
  12. and don't forget money from the other devils - sports betting industry and one-armed bandits
  13. maybe, but some of the bom's apparent handling of climate change practices would seem to justify closer scrutiny or dare i say a little skepticism. no harm in applying a little skepticism to BOTH sides of the divide, eh?
  14. i can't remember. i was quite younger than him and he was a regular visitor to a house in st. kilda road. yes, there were (stand-alone) houses in st. kilda road then.
  15. it doesn't have to be an overt, conscious, conspiratorial thing. ht. self preservation is a wonderful motivator look on the flip side, imagine if one were a climate cynic in the bom. do you think their career prospects were rosy or threatened? just my devil's advocate 2c
  16. photographic memory does not a genius make incidentally ht, i used to know barry reasonably well in his early quiz days. not a bad bloke, smart but no genius
  17. cats to go into jlt1 without the 3 amigos
  18. this doesn't compute. no true genius would ever become a politician. it would be oxymoronic
  19. well, as long as you've got your pecker you'll survive have you tried testosterone supplements?
  20. half an hour before 1st test in seth efrica and the crowd has swelled to about 120 (according to cricinfo)
  21. you are what you think you are, nut, apparently btw have you found your gonads yet
  22. what happened to the alarmist horrendous summer we were supposed to have that's 3 years in a row our experts have got it wrong but their long term climate models are so good.....right?
