  • Hard News: Anatomy of a Shambles,

    Hmm, then I kinda got fired. Damn daily contracts its an outrage!

    sounds to me like you gave away your value a little too early.

    i guess the only positive outcome is:

    if they want another muppet movie, we should be able to provide people.

  • OnPoint: On Freedom of Speech,

    Well, I believe that freedom of speech is a good thing that should be protected at a constitutional level by the state.

    hmmm... still not convinced. i believe you mean "i think that freedom...".

    or "i reason that freedom...".

  • OnPoint: On Freedom of Speech,

    Jokes aside, I do believe in the right to free speech

    (emphasis mine) no you don't.

    free speech is a right with which you either agree, or disagree.

    you believe in the tooth fairy. or santa. this whole "i believe" thing kind of gives me the shits.

  • Speaker: John Roughan is Scared,

    [in] Singapore ...the stations in the CBD and destination points tend to be a lot closer together than 2000m.

    likewise downtown melbourne has about 5 stations in a ring, all at key points feeding into the tram network. some of which are only about a km apart.

    one station, say flinders, would be ridiculous.

  • Speaker: John Roughan is Scared,

    Quite the opposite, the more people on the south side who are on rail, the easier the commute is going to be for those on the Shore.

    i'd suggest you want tram jams up there as opposed to boob tubes.

    the shore is a great bit of ribbon development.

    Perhaps I haven't lived in Welly long enough, but I've spent 6 of the last 10 years here and that's the first I ever heard that phrase

    you probably can't hear the bus-loads of whinging through your cycle helmet.

  • Speaker: John Roughan is Scared,

    the major impediment to uptake of public transport is most likely to be public attitudes to sharing a ride.

    people here in wellington, where we have decent public transport, readily call buses "loser cruisers". i keep trying to get the same people to call the trains "boob tubes", but it hasn't caught on yet.

    and

    Where Auckland's rail network screws up is that it doesn't go anywhere.

    is right on the money. what i wanted when i lived 100m from the mt eden station was a way to get anywhere. anywhere at all.
