    Whether supporting or opposing the draft plan, everyone is entitled to their opinion, even when they are wrong.

    A fine sentiment, likely to misfire methinks.

  • Speaker: Generation Zero: Let's Grow Up,

    Auckland is a beautiful city

    It was about 40 years ago. In the 70's it was a very lively place.

    We dream of a well-connected community linking up where we work, study and play.

    Don't we all, well except the silly"old" farts who did this:

    We’ve turned up to local community meetings (and have been booed

    What can I say! Age sometimes doesn't bestow gentility or wisdom of any kind, just aversion to change, wanting things to stay the way they are and a total lack of any foresight.

    People really did that at community meetings?

    Just Lemmy me at their church and I'll tell 'em There's no god. We'll see some frothing at the mouth then.

    Anyone who’s travelled knows that building intensification is common overseas, and it’s no all shoebox apartments and ghettos

    Yes, the .5% of this planet that is habitable to us, and a few other species, is getting crowded, and squabbling is happening.
    Who'd have thunk it!

    You may well be able to test items on list X and show they are not harmful, but they’ll still be illegal because they are on the list.

    Someone once told me living will cause your death.
    Is that on the list? Can we test that?

    My mother used to tell me that could be a sign of mental stability.

  • Hard News: The Messenger God,

    Hermes in later developments became part of the gnostic tradition. A simplified catchphrase might be an introspective 'know thyself' Today en masse we are a miserable failure at that. Just a lot of noise, talking past each other.

    What are the implications of the buzzing, constant, real-time world in which we now live?

    depends who's giving off the loudest, and to my ear, the most insidiously annoying 'buzz'
