if you're going to give people bad news, and you have to give them important information as well, write it down.
That made me laugh, the right way, I hope.
At least you were not also having to translate the information from, say, Spanish (which has a fine public health system I might add).

Russell, a few of us at PA attended a 'Hustle for Russell' function in Wellington a year or two ago. Bill English spoke movingly and convincingly about the need to support children with different needs. You even wrote an article about his speech.
Time to pick up the damned phone and talk to our Finance Minister about the need to live up to his own fine words.
This is a attitude travesty and should treated as such.

In the case of Ms Allen it was a little bit smoke and mirrors.
Story of her whole life. I wasn't trying to claim the Internet was *the* reason for her success. Just that she used it very cleverly.

Fortunately it's a nice space and we have now rented out our house and moved into the office.
Did that once. It was better than having a flooded ceiling collapse on us.
One thing we are terrible at is telling our customers and friends what we are up to and what ideas we have that could help them. It is a feedback loop a lot of them crave.
I think we have an image of ourselves that is basically "do our job really well, and try not to be noticed". Clients want more than that.

RIANZ says its evidence is “highly reliable, well-tested and accepted worldwide”.
Later in TFA we read this:
RIANZ does not want the notices sent out to users accused of infringement to include evidence that would be admissible in court.
You see, as Stephen so rightly said, they *know* their evidence doesn't stack up. If this is not a reason to oppose a deal with these guys I really don't know what is.
