• Not Posted for a Long Time

  I guess I have not posted anything for a very long time.  Not that I have run out of anything to say I am just having a break from arguing about climate science.

Finally the coal mining government is gone.  Guess I will have to starting whinging about Kevin 07 now. Not sorry to see Howard gone at all.  I think that he firmly set Australia on the path to the 1950s in the year 1996.

Mr Howard will be speaking to his Indian counterpart today about the possible supply of uranium. He has told Parliament that he does not believe Australia should refuse to sell uranium to India when it sells to China.

To illustrate the lunacy of selling our uranium to really anybody who will buy it consider this: Pakistan warned Thursday that a civilian nuclear accord between India and the United States threatens regional stability, saying it would allow its arch rival to produce more atomic bombs.
