It never worried me when someone answered starting with the word 'Well' in fact it is far more concerning that your argument be so weak as to claim some justification on the basis that someone opposing started an answer using the word 'Well'
Bowing to someone with greater knowledge Haha! what a joke! Greater self importance maybe!
But aside from that, why are most people on HC knockers? If it weren't for the BIG idea people of this country we'd still be sitting in England thinking about boarding a ship. What about visionaries like CY O'Connor who was so badly denigrated in public circles whilst construction the Mundaring To Kalgoorlie water pipeline. Seeing the arguments against the NBN is like history repeating itself time and time again. What of Ernie Bridges idea to pipe water through the centre of this great nation from the north Kimberly? An idea that if acted upon early in the piece would have seen a massive infrastructure and agriculture boost right across the nation (far bigger than the 179,000 people that mining/energy employ) And just think how much CHEAPER this project would have been if implemented back in the early 90's
It's not the big ideas ... It's the knockers that tear this country down!
BTW there's nothing currently known to man faster at data transmittal than fibre optics!
