SAMMYJ ,Isolation is nothing new for those of us who live and work in the country , In recent years we have given up hope of being properly being represented , We don't even write letters to our own papers anymore. http://thiselection.blogspot.com , We are largely patronised and played with by the media and the other wannabes We want our ABC to be the best, but decades of drivel drive us nuts and we are happy to have SKY News to give us a decent rest from the relentle ss patronising and presumption that is the city telling us about our environment and what it needs , Many Melbourne 774 radio presenters/producers over the last few decades have just played with us, and it stinks A few of us went to Torquay last election to remind the sea changers that they had over 400 shiny arses in the Shire who wouldn't do a thing to keep some credibility in their West .

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 ...
I asked George about all the smoke haze George You can’t have it both ways.The scaremongers are so desperate to prove their point about the world getting warmer that they clearly can’t see the bushfires through the smoke and mirrors of their own climate change campaign, This latest attempt to prove to the public that the place is warming up will prove only that these people are desperate enough to ignore even basic truths. The truths of really serious and very dangerous catastrophic fires in our history. Those of us who still think about fires know that smoke and haze are products of incomplete combustion and high humidity .Its not enough to just have high air temperatures ; you have to have the right speed and water content in the wind and the fuel. The earths air is full of moisture - trouble is we can't always see it. You don't , as Minister for Emergencies said, need 200 mm of actual rain to stop fires. The claim that the fires in Eastern Australia this early su...
