Sun struck --completely

Was in bed thinking as I often do about why the citicentrics are worried about the world warming. It had been a typical climate warming scare day at 40 degrees but now i up to my ears under the blankets .
They like things simple they do. Maybe the worriers think its as simple as burning equals warming which would be true if the heat didn't escape .But it does - every night when there is no cloud

Give me my dog back woodya

Cool dude in a nice new RCV is held up by the sheep on the road . Intrigued,  as are all city people by the paradoxes of the scene ( low technology , doing same old same old  dirty work for nothing , still smiling )  he offers to help the poor peasant using the mass of technology in his car...... and do some trading ( as is the way of the world in the city ) " If I guess correctly tell you how many sheep you have ......will you let me have one?  He gets out his computer dials up Google Earth , zooms in  using a app , does some triangulation and wow there is the number  "215"  in the mob . "Wow"  the shepherd says   "thats right" and things move on If I guess correctly what you do for a living ,  can we do another trade ?   shepherd says Straight up the shepherd says " Consultant -----" . "How did you work that out?   Firstly , you think you know what i need , second you tell me something I already know , Thirdly ...

The three amigos ( Sinclair, Anthony and Nixon   )  featured on a wonderful  reflection on the history of the Country Party in Australia this week. They were found , not reveling in their achievements or bemoaning their lack of influence,  but back in the garden ;their farms . Heather Ewart's series should be shown around the world -----its that good and such good therapy about the things that matter .Its a long way from the shallow pedant ridden world of political games and rhetoric. There is something magical about the opportunity to manage the land .The rewards are there despite the external contradictions .

 And even in our own country.  We pray for peace in the Middle East .  Let me first say that as both a very practical geoscientist and student of history and philosophy (because it can direct the former to more productive and rewarding ends) that planning is my first love and i hope to see REGIONAL and all thinking people drive a return to it .    Am I mad ? I will ask the sheep and the cat   and the donkey too might but in ---- I hope .  It's our children's future and despite inheriting the best planning principles from our own history .Australia is now like many parts of Europe......... one of its COT cases . Why ? You would have to ask me lots of questions and TRUST me as an effective change agent. One of our lead authors Tim Winton uses the word wonks . I would agree with all who do their job well and get criticized that screen based ( not paddock based )dilitants pen pushers and endless subdividers of problems are the real problem  ...
