“See our people working on the lad, spread far and wide.
Oh, man, I'm hoping that's not a literal translation! Imma sending you a bag of n's as you seem to be running short.
PS I know I've been away, but didn't there used to be a quote function on here?

Lovely work, David, as always.
On the question of community, it's easier to come together when you have a common enemy and harder to create something positive when there's nothing to push against. It can be done, as the many communities of interest in society prove, and a big part of it will be the social scene - there will always be a need for gay clubs, pubs and other venues. If equality means anything, being gay should societally be just another tickbox on the census form, but this doesn't mean that gay men and women (in all our Heinz varieties) have to merge invisibly with the 'mainstream'. We will, however, have the communities we want to have, not the refuges we've been forced to inhabit on the outskirts in the past. So it's up to us to decide what it is we want.
For the record, bisexual man since 1980, never been much of a big deal to me, but found my community in theatre.

Hard News: You down with TPP?, in reply to Sacha,
IP is all about reputation and value premiums, so highly relevant if we trade that off for last century's priorities.
China is not a party to the TPPA so Chris is right - not relevant ;-)

Rod Oram's recent SST column was rather interesting about the agricultural/dairy access to the USA. (No link as I can't unscramble Fairax's Stuff site.)
Edit: That site is sooo broken

Late to the game but congrats and thank you. This is still one of the most civilized places on the net, and that means a lot.

Hard News: The Big 2012 US Election PAS Thread, in reply to Rich of Observationz,
From the context, I think they mean they haven't properly set the touch areas. But "calibration" probably sounds more sciency.

I retract and withdraw. Lovely Wife advises that system logs are considered records on the basis that they act as metadata for the actual content. How things have changed.
