"...error-free through transatlantic sub-marine cables."
So those of us in Australia, which is bordered by bodies of water such as the Pacific and Indian oceans, amongst other, and NOT the Atlantic will continue to get error riddled internet. Typical Pom's, can't trust them further than you can smell them.....
The farmer wondered whether the wether would weather the weather or whether the wether would die.
and while, or should that be whilst, we're at it:
T. H. E. I. R., mum and dad have bought THEIR car. T. H. E. R. E., over THERE, my car you see. T. H. E. Y. A. R. E., Drop the A and there will be THEY'RE with an apostrophe.
Not the first time I've heard of this sort of thing. If memory serves me correctly Bondi Council in Sydney, where residents need residential parking permits, would get theirs free if the car emitted less CO2 than a certain level, above that and you had to pay. In other words, pretty much all Toorak Tractors would have to pay. My question, which I never followed up because I'm not silly enough to live in that cesspit called Sydney, is what if you drive a 4WD and it's powered by biodiesel? The CO2 that is emitted is "recycled" back into crops for next years biodiesel, forgetting for the moment the whole energy efficiency argument of inputs Vs outputs.
An interesting thought that would keep a whole room of Arts degree holding bureaucrats busy for a year trying to work out how to respond!!!

That's my take on it.....
