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...
