  1. I'm impressed with the "what3Words" geo location system especially for those areas where addresses are approximate at best.

     

    If you enter the string "tallest.highly.aircraft" it will take you to the position of my aircraft in my hangar.

     

    check out what3words.com

     

     

  2. I wish I bought the last Australasian Post I remember. The advertising poster was a picture of an unshaven guy wearing a yellow dress, with a wheat paddock background. The headline said " I want my penis back says sex-change shearer"

    Shouldn't that be in the "new member" thread

     

     

  3. The Seneca Cliff argument fits well with the much more recent Jared Diamonds's "Collapse".

     

    Not much in the way of good news Bruce.

     

    However

     

    I do take some comfort from the second world war.

     

    At that time when our (and their) backs were to the wall the amount of universal mobilisation and production was truly phenomenal. Look at how many Liberty boats and aircraft were produced in very short time frames.

     

    Perhaps more outstanding was the German industry that managed to support a tremendous war effort in the face of severe restriction on access to resources.

     

    If and when the whole world gets sufficiently scared of the effects of our resource profligacy; perhaps just perhaps; we will display enough unified nouse to as a species/civilisation take the necessary action.

     

    Won't happen tomorrow however.

     

     

  4. 4 months total whisper

     

    Then Friday whispering and resigned to permanent silence

     

    Saturday bit hoarse

     

    Sunday shifting pitch puberty almost voice

     

    Monday use able voice about half normal volume

     

    Greatly encouraged

     

    AULK -SFO today

     

     

  5. It's all Kruschiev's fault

     

    Had he not backed down in 62 we would have had a nice little nuclear winter

     

    and things would be coming right about now especially in the downunder end of the globe

     

     

  6. One aspect of the anti vaxxers is that they rely on the herd immunity to protect their children a level of immunity in the population at large that has been created by those parents who accepted the risk/benefit equation and had their children fully vaccinated.

     

    A rather selfish and unfair stance to adopt.
