Brilliant! Will push this at the 14 yr olds - and share as widely as possible. ("Only" on TVNZ ondemand - LOL. Cos, y'know Psy was only popular on youtube...)

Envirologue: Too Big to Fail – Why…, in reply to Bart Janssen,
we still know who pays him to post this shit.
I'd really like this to be clarified.
Stamper - can you please tell us what your job is?
I'm ok with you posting this rubbish if you genuinely believe it. I'm sad to say I've met a few people who do - some of whom are cranky or cocky enough to spend their own time spreading misinformation.
But if you are being paid to spread it you should tell us - it's a thing called 'being honest.' If you're not willing to be honest, you can be banned from posting, or we can simply stop responding (as most have.)
So far you've ignored all such requests. Last chance? -
Envirologue: Too Big to Fail – Why…, in reply to Stamper Stamp,
You may not be aware
That your quote doesn't demonstrate what you think it does. Maybe you could do some courses in science - or logic?

the 400 million Chinese that have been lifted out of poverty by the “current global model”
Why do I always find myself chuckling when Communist China is used as absolute proof Neo-liberalism is perfect?

OnPoint: Beyond 'a bad look', in reply to Tom Semmens,
journalism in this country is dead.
My sis is a journalist and wrote this - I liked it :)
Visiting speaker Bryan Bruce knocked the stuffing out of neo-liberal economics in his Wanganui lecture on Saturday night. -
Great post and discussion - thanks Keith. Thanks PAS :)

Hard News: Friday Music: What Alltracks…, in reply to JacksonP,
To be fair, I think it’s a lake. :-)
I thought I saw boats at the end, but hey - a lake! :)
Interesting to read about it.
I liked the mysterious imagery in its own right. But for me, the song evokes a strong sense of place, and that wasn't the place. (There's also those events ... but leave that alone!)
Two cool things thrown together sometimes just mesh in new and wonderful ways. Here I felt they were driving in different directions. -
Hi Ali - good to see you here :) (I'm the other Oscar's dad, assuming you are the right Ali!)

Indie Kid Anthonie Tonnon just dropped his video for Water Underground. :-)
Love the song. Wanted to love the video.
For me it evokes Canterbury plains farm-country – pivot irrigators, the patchwork of the plains interrupted by giant green circles when you fly over, nor’west sunsets, a single macracarpa standing in a field, fields of cows, trucks of cows, brand-new cow-sheds gleaming unpainted iron in the sun. Sheep, drought, rabbits, wheatfields, lazy blue-sky clouds, great braided rivers, the dust cloud flying up behind the wheels of a ute.
Definitely not Auckland seaside. Nevermind :) -
Hard News: Will the grown-ups ever…, in reply to Rosemary McDonald,
We’re getting to be a whiny, complainy, almost seditious wee bunch….
Thank goodness :)
