[ozwinner]

Iv'e just watched An Inconvenient truth and if you haven't seen it, it's worth a watch.

I always wonder whos truth they based these science fiction films on?

So how we can forecast the next century I fail to understand.

One thing is clear, we need to reconsider some of the things we are doing to our atmosphere and environment.

Al Gore (IMO) seems to know what he's on about, which makes a change for a (ex) politition!

Having watched Al Gores Inconvenient truth neither the facts nor the conclusions seem outlandish, and with the UN report handed down they even seem understated. It's about time our pollies actually got their brains into gear and started behaving like responsible adults on climate change. Our Kyoto effort was pathetic as are the statements appearing today about adjusting to change as an alternative to actually doing something constructive.

Eddie, I actually did have a houseboat at Walker Flat for quite a few years, built it myself.
Didn't have any problems with water then!

Although the way the Murray is going , with all us Eastern staters pinching all you CrowEaters water, you might not have enough water to float your boat!

Just ask Mike Rann.

A tadd off-subject maybe, but in the 2.5 years I've lived on the Murray, the water level has barely changed at all. Now I know it is regulated by the lock system, I'm just saying the noticeable amount of water, at least in SA is the same, if not slightly higher. So to all the city dwellers who think the Murray has slowed to a trickle - Taint so.

I do realise the whole Murray/Darling/Murumbidgee system needs urgent help though. That's why I agree the Feds should control the water resources.

Bloody waste-of-space state Gumments couldn't agree on what day of the week it was.

Maybe you could recycle ya raw sewage in a cooler

- I wonder if Bracks would be intersted in your idea. Wouldn't make any difference at the top end of Collins Street, would it?

And. I agree with Eddie, my Blockie/drinking mate and I agreed (maybe for the second time in 20 years) that the water looks "up" - this while crossing from NSW to Vic for a beerenough last Friday. (Grumps and Grumper).
