Greetings ginger3,

Let's hope collectively that your predictory statement to 'judgement cometh' will deliver.
In tandem with our subject line today, I uplifted this:

Australian politicians need reminding they ought be transparent with the public
Date August 9, 2014 - 1:30AM Michael West Business columnist I hear there's rumours on the, uh, internets - George W. Bush, St Louis, Missouri 2004. ''The Decider'' was onto this newfangled ''internets'' thingamijig early in the piece. Many in Australia's esteemed legal fraternity however are not so internets savvy, as evinced by George W. Brandis' wrestle with the concept of metadata this week. It's tricky stuff.
The ''dark dungeons of the internet'', as George W. Bush dubbed them, have been playing terrible havoc with our diplomatic and judicial corps. The diplomatic damage is one thing, the implications for free speech and Australia's democracy another. Hollingworth is a highly regarded judge but she is also part of an encroaching culture of secrecy.
Political donations are as disguised and sneaky as ever.

Our forum had shades of all these themes. The worst thing that 'sticks in my mind is/are lost opportunities to act as a united body to progress to better results.
We are left with current CA and are holding our breaths till it concludes.
Our input into it appears to be hampered by deletion of important posts, internal interferences, deliberate detours from PIF issues and the like.

And all happening under the banner of "Support your Freedom of Speech on HotCopper".
We have a number of intelligent posters sitting out in 'sinbins', I just returned from one.
There is a culture against Reason and Logic and it is intimidating to the point of rarefied participation.

So what will 9 September bring us?

As an Unrepentant Optimist, I would say Reason & Logic will prevail and will extend to (CA) conclusion
of our Day in Court.

Cheers,
