    Words...

    Yes, he was magnificent. Mora just sounded embarrassed and eager to change the subject.

    aah! all this explains one mystery, I tuned in briefly at some point after this, and wondered at the palpable tension of the recently adrenalised vocal cords and manner of those two...
    Good show Mr Slack.

    meat data...

    Is there, in fact, anything at all which is beyond the eyes of others?

    Not if those others are humans,
    and are involved in the process
    of moving, storing or accessing data.
    Curiosity, Corruptability and Chance
    can all play a part...

    (NB not to besmirch all data techs, but it only takes one, and there is always one...)

    The hills are alive
    they have ears and eyes
    they know what to do
    with a problem like that...

    It’s Amsterdam

    I'm sure he must be related to Morey Amsterdam from the Dick van Dyke show, some physical characteristics look familiar - but he doesn't seem to be directly related.

    at least they haven't gone for 'Rotter-dam'
    (or anywhere...)

    My mum told me the sun rises in the east and sets in the west.

    "Yeah well, we looked at that and went quite a way along that path, but ultimately I decided against it and we never implemented it."

    Sky Lord of the Cty...

    ...a professional journalist like Mike Hosking

    In 2013, (Hosking) was the master of ceremonies at Prime Minister John Key's state of the nation speech, which he also endorsed.*
    Hosking doesn't accept the fallacy that humans are causing global warming, stating on Seven Sharp that he doesn't believe in the IPCC report.

    from wikipedia

    *He waxed lyrical about his family car - the 5.7 Lexus LX570.
    Then, when introducing Key, he gave him the big thumbs-up. "I've done my own state of the nation.
    "As I see it, all things considered we are doing pretty bloody well. We box above our weight," he said.
    "We have bright prospects for the future, so long as you keep them in Government," he said.
