If I where the judge I'd let the $360 bil cheque guy off just to see what he did next. It would have to be a laugh right? and its not like he's going to get away with anything right?

Yeah I can't imagine most of the world giving up on them. I think that the proposal is all new sales in Oz will be 4 stroke.... yadda, yadda but don't quote me, not real sure about it.

Like the Naderites killed off the Chevrolet Corvair 40 years ago. The original had some serious handling problems, which GM fixed; all built after the first 2 years were fine, no longer had the objectionable suspension, but they ignored that minor fact. I'm sure the fact that 2 strokes have cleaned up their act in recent years will be ignored by the greenies, 'cause it doesn't fit with their image of the nasty polluters. Somehow truth doesn't play a big role in the worldview of extremists of any cause.

Too many politicians come from up this way and the radar (doppler variety) would get toooo confused, and also all them rednecks around Skimpie (Gympie) way were scared their nuts would melt.... so the radar is down Logan City way - too poor there to but up a strong legal case & there it can scan the hi-rise in Brisbane & on the Gold Coast, to see where all the vacuousness originates.....

Heinz, you posted on the wrong thread - that should belong in "lies and witchcraft"?

I still have my satellite option if I win lotto to afford the $1000 per month.... I also took your suggestion to heart and did a bit of digging on that website... On the surface looks VERY impressive.... I have three interested in churning....

Our media treated the hole as a mystery but I figured it would have to have something to do with a well. Then again it maybe that old GWB is sucking that hard these days that....
