    Longtermlegs,

    Apologies for late reply,we are in drought and life
    becomes more demanding.

    During the Copernican revolution the 'new' understanding
    was the earth was not flat,nor was it the centre of
    everything.In modern times we are learning that we humans
    are not at the top of an elite pecking order.

    Example....

    Mans judgement is only as good as the valid information
    that supports it and with New Zealand being the world
    record holders in gut and breast cancers and up among the
    leaders in childhood cancers..something has to give,as
    the answers are not forthcoming from traditional medicine.

    A good start in eliminating the scourge-that is cancer-
    would be to look at the farm chemical connection on both
    sides of the 'ditch.'

    Pesticides are not registered on the basis of their safety.
    Instead they are registered on the basis that their benefits
    will supposedly outweigh their costs-and the buck stops
    there.

    In the meantime-the first line of defence against cancer
    is prevention and the widespread banning of pesticides
    and particularly their aerial application.Then a diet rich
    in minerals laced with Rare Earths would be a close second
    in my view-then the old adage...'an ounce of prevention
    is worth a ton of cure'...would have a profound impact on
    society.

    Change of tack...

    Australian Oct/19/12

    One of the leading Australian business figures in China
    says a 'fresh wave' of Chinese investment is being prepared
    to be injected as soon as China's leadership-transition
    is completed.

    Shanghai-based Paul Glasson,a leading deal-maker linking
    Chinese investors with Australian assets through his Satori
    investments,told a business audience in Melbourne that the
    pro-Australian investment policy was "already largely
    established and developed" and that China viewed Australian
    asset prices as 'cheap.'

    Prime targets are resource assets,as they were in the
    first wave of Chinese investments soon after the global
    financial crisis.

    Infrastructure is also on the shopping list,he said,with
    several state premiers recently pitching their pet projects
    in Beijing.

    Mr Glassen,who is also National Vice President of the
    Australian China Business Council,warned that the cost of
    labour,especially in WA had been perceived as 'crippling'
    but decreasing.

    Another constraint had been that the time to receive
    regulatory approvals has been woefully slow.The Australian
    system poses interesting challenges,in infrastructure,
    employment,labour mobility and tax-overall,in productivity.

    So Chinese corporations need to take the mergers and
    acquisitions path,he said.A diversified range of targets
    would include agricultural assets.

    Demand for dairy and salmon,for example,were growing as
    pockets deepened and tastes changed.

    He said Chinese companies would not be interested in
    investing in state Govt infrastructure projects if they
    could not be assured of a fully commercial return.

    Mr Glasson said the ruling communist party's power was
    so dependent on continued economic success that 'there
    has to be partnership between Govt and business.'

    Australian businesses had been urging the Chinese Govt
    to push its companies to work closely with Australian
    firms that had local knowledge,to their benefit.Such
    alliances would make it easier for Chinese to enter
    markets that they have previously found difficult.

    ******

    Finally...

    The recent cyber attack on Bloomberg,which tried blocking
    Asian hierarchy disclosure of huge accumulations of Rare
    Earth assets,is another indication of where this industry
    is heading.Any doubt that one has as to who will eventually
    dominate the REE scene-should be put to rest. [IMO]

    [And Cubbie station is just the tip of the Asian invasion
    of our agricultural farm land]

    Rather than end up as a dweeb,perhaps we need to learn
    Mandarin-as the transformation of Australia progresses
    toward its inevitable destiny...
