"Its only in Aus that there is such absurd resistance to intelligent progress."
that's dreadfully close to the mark ------------ I've no idea why - other than the - this is what happens if you stick a bunch of crims on an island and let them breed --
what did you expect kind of thing
you just don't get these dumb debates overseas - like climate debates and now EV's
everyone here knows the climate is changing ------- they all talk about what the winters were like whey they were kids - 'up to me r's in snow' -- 'never see that anymore' 'when I was a kid, if I'd have fallen over in the snow, they would never have found me'
wild swings in weather - this last week in France - now described as an agricultural disaster for wine - biggest weather disaster in a century
if one were to pop up here and say - oh, the aussies just thing it's normal
they'd think you were bloody crazy
same deal EV's -- no one argues that they aren't here to stay - no one
just the crims we sent south a couple of hundred years ago on an island - they're still there and breeding apparently
