well, the last call thing was what I remember being told - but, either way

Gino was real, he received orders and we acted on them - that simple

now ---------- let's get real -

''btw I fully agree with you on the effects of a cat 4 on the Gold Coast.''

good - we agree - because I tell you what - there is a LOT of ignorance and denial going around as to the situation we are in right now - and I believe that both you and I can have valuable input to dispel that ignorance -

I'll give you just a small example -------------

numbers, who lives on the GC on a canal - we had a discussion yesterday - and I asked him where he expected to accommodate IF a major cyclone crossed the coast near him and made his house uninhabitable

now he did come back with what was his plan -

and his plan was to move into his caravan.

Now - both you and I know what the reality would be if a Cat 4 or 5 crossed the coast and destroyed or damaged badly a residence -

and on the driveway of that residence sits a caravan -

numbers seems to thoughtlessly think that he can move into the caravan -

you and I both know that the caravan will probably be scattered over many hundreds of metres - possibly even a suburb away - in 10,000 bits

and we know that the reality is that there will be 10's minimum, possibly hundreds of thousands of people needing emergency accommodation -
roads will be totally blocked, no power, no water, no shelter

Darwin wasn't prepared for Cyclone Tracy - but, in Oz there was accommodation available -

Presently - Australia is guts up in a housing crisis ------- many people seem totally ignorant that if we have a major natural disaster atm -------- and we need to evacuate hundreds of thousands of people

there's a problem -------------- and the problem is ---------------------- where to?

this is not 1975

your thoughts would be appreciated

Didn't the Labortards built hundreds of covid isolation centres throughout Australia which are now sitting empty?

Oh that's right, you wouldn't know, you don't live here.
