    letters don’t rhyme.
  4. At any time in history, the next few years will be the short term. Short termism means never accepting that population will peak and then decline. Otherwise, we eventually destroy the world. News about declining populations is the best news the environment ever had. Meanwhile, I just read that Scomo has joined an organisation that plans to mine the sea floor. It is madness.
  5. In my day nurses drove Triumph Heralds, which was an admission of poverty.
  6. Governments are concerned about dwindling populations. They should be celebrating .
  7. Sorry I may have misled. I use and love my CPAP for apnea. It’s just that I stopped taking medication for the AF because it made no difference, the AF is 100% of the time permanent. I would encourage anyone to use CPAP if they need it.
  8. I have had AF for at least seven years. They tried drugs and electric shocks but it didn’t help so now I do nothing and I think it is OK. Just don’t have much ability to jog or run.
  9. I have paid a dollar or so to stand in a tent at the show and watch Chad play half a dozen songs.. He was half pissed and I don’t blame him, what a rotten job. He was in a fenced off area in the middle of the tent and the punters stood all around him. He probably did the same thing ten times a day or more. I admire him.
  10. Nuclear would be distributed in exactly the same way as coal and gas fired electricity. The infrastructure exists already.

  13. As an experiment I just asked ChatGTP to rewrite Wille's post in Australian. Here is the response: When it comes to Twitter superspreader accounts, how do they clean up the mess when old mate Musk is letting it all run wild on his plaything? In an ideal world, Elon would get bored of his new toy and flog it off to someone who knows what they're doing, but his ego’s too big for that. For him, buying Twitter was all about showing off and pushing his dodgy political views, boosting accounts that think like him. Shifting Twitter way to the right was the plan, letting all the misinformation accounts slide right in. Musk wouldn’t give a rat's if there was rubbish posted on Twitter, especially since he's one of the worst culprits himself. Despots and authoritarian mobs love it. Superspreader accounts can sway public opinion and elections in their enemies’ countries. Take the Kremlin, for instance—they use the 60/40 Goebbels propaganda trick. Dish out 60% legit content to win people’s trust, then the other 40% is mostly BS aimed at those who don’t buy the 60% truth. Feed them rubbish, conspiracy theories, and any other garbage to win over the disgruntled. Once you’ve got that 40% on side, use them to mess with and influence the 60%. It’s a simple but effective way of spreading propaganda, and it works a treat.
  14. If I went anonymous on social media I would not know who I was.
  15. I use a nose mask. There are two types. One puts little bungs in each nostril, it is uncomfortable. The other has pillows as they call them a over your lower nose and is very comfortable.

    Left shoulder. Oops, it’s been done!
  17. I have it and have used a machine for about ten years. CASA made me take the test and I am glad they did. I love the machine, it allows me to sleep soundly and quietly and I am sure it has extended my life.

    I did my best this evening.
  19. Glod is a village in Romania, it was used as the location of Borat's home in the movie. It is not on the coast, but I reckon they could beat Geelong.
