Thanks Tankba - i'm sure everyone appreciates your post. The rational answer - always the enemy of sensationalist hype!! i would have loved to have been on that tour.

And nice to know my eyes weren't decieving me, although my wife would argue it's the only time i've ever been interested in cleanliness.

Still, this upcoming ceto announcement is the perfect opportunity for the federal government to prove it's going to do more than just sign documents and form commitees. I dont expect support for a "first site" announcement or anything like that, but if the federal government doesnt stump up with some decent monetary and verbal endorsement of the ceto system, i'll be one unhappy camper.

REH said the 30 day test results would be available around mid April so we are getting close. I'm hoping they're just waiting until Penny Wong can make herself available. When she's photographed drinking CETO water we'll know we're on the cusp of some very exciting times. (If it's Peter Garrett doing the drinking, we'll know we still have some work to do!)

CNMs current direction does seem to make the Binningup decision more important in the scheme of things. That's their ready made demonstration plant. The fact that decision's delayed until August is very helpful. You'd have to think they'll have quite a number of CETO devices off Rous Head by then and would be well advanced with CETO 3.

Anyway, that's all guff - just looking forward to seeing what comes of the next couple of weeks.
