So RIO should suffer enormous damage through no fault of its own TFP!? ie "While it paid the renewal fees, the courier company failed to properly deliver the renewal documents by the deadline."

What's TFP?
------------------------------------------------
But it was RIO's fault. RIO had the responsibility to ensure, to check, to follow, to guarantee the delivery was made on time.

RIO had HEAPS of TIME in which to accomplish their PRIMARY responsibility. To ensure they do not forfeit the lease by being late, but for the grace of a man who thinks he can play demigod in good conscience.

That's like a demigod saying "we go to war because we are good people, the most supremely moral and most perfect nation among all nations of earth, and we happen to also be supremely powerful which humbles us as we deliver to our enemy a war that, if and when we chose the time and place, can go beyond the enemy's wildest dreams and expectation of shock and awe". Ha Ha Ha!

Smelly stuff happens every day of our lives. It is one of the driving forces that keeps us on our toes. And the response "stiff cheese" is bandied about by winners and those who like making meaningful contributions to a debate.

You think it is equitable to penalise a company which has brought enormous prosperity to the people of this state?

EQUITY is not a-bout the purity and innocence of a Party to a dispute. Though that is needed to qualify for an equitable remedy. It is about justice when the operation of the law would have produced an injustice.

So, when is failure to act responsibly the subject of an equitable remedy? I sense I'm not sophisticted enough to fully answer that question. Only to ask it.

Still, I personally can not see how equity can be argued.

As for CAZs' "damage"...their capitalisation has increased substantially since this story emerged...they have had quite a few oppies converted and their profile amongst juniors is sky high.

This was a negligible claim by CAZ....

Hotwolf. What claim are you referring to?

"....but a false legitimacy is being created via immature investors with a false sense of sophistication and an impotent opposition party with nothing better to do than simply oppose everything".

I agree. Except:

1. That's how all opposition parties work. It’s the nature
of the beast, the system. And its better than not
having an opposition.

Better than allowing Bowler to not publish his
reasons.

Could you imagine that? He actually did decide to
not publish! Which sows that the decision was part
political. Because Bowler said he had initial legal
advice to Not Publish (or was that advice to say he
need not publish?).

But he did decide to. Why? Because the decision,
like his change of mind, the decision is political as
well.

Though I doubt the WA Opposition persuade Bowler.
I’d like to take most of the credit for forcing Bowler's
hand.

Its a measure of the power of people like me who,
post comments at HC and who suffer a false sense
of sophistication. Why? Because it helps to have
just a tinge of illusion about oneself. Just as, I
expect, Bowler has, regarding the adequacy of his
arguments. I TOLD YOU ALL THAT I sensed Bowler
was taking so long because he was trying to add an
element of himself into he decision.

That's why THEY call it the Bowler decision......ok,
I coined the term first at HC.

2. "False legitimacy"? Personally I expect
garbage at HC. Its the nature of the beast.

Think of it as brain storming. Now that should give
you scope to attack!

3. If only real experts could make comments at HC. And
if only it then stayed a FREE place for picking up
market tips. Except economists are experts. And
their guess is often as good as an id-iots.

So, will there be a rate rise next week? Try asking
an id-iot like me. I reckon No. I come to that
conclusion because I sometimes listen
to the experts and sometimes I suffer from a false
sense of sophistication.

Trouble is, its hard to distinguish one from the other when
measured by accuracy of outcomes. Even an id-iot
can predict next week will be 50:50. But experts do
have their place in the scheme of things.

Now where have I heard that before? 50:50?

Like when I rely on my spelling checker. I always
trust it! Because it has proven itself to be very sofisticated.

But HC is mostly a place for people to spread rumour
and gossip. I've never expected anything better
than moral support and opposition. It’s the nature of
that beast too, I reckon.

Don't you think its fun? With serious money being
thrown around? Of course.
