    I can see the confusion, I think, from an atheist point of view – how could you hold on to faith when you work in science?

    That was it, in a nutshell. Nothing more , nothing less. I'm not prepared to express or want my view to be put upon others but all I feel basically is I believe in a collective consciousness, but that is because I believe we live on the one planet and thus consciousness is inevitable. With my friend, science is the ultimate proof for succeeding with the profession because she has done the research and there is evidence recorded and experienced.That's all. No biggy :)

    My friend who is a head specialist at AK Hospital, commented that many doctors up there are religious. Also another of her colleagues who she is doing trials with, for Diabetes type 1 and 2 is extremely religious. We discussed how we found that a tad confusing, being that her trials are science based.

    Cr Tim Carter asks for answers from EQC about their priorites.

    And Campbell Live last night followed up on the protest outside EQC and then onto IAG. Thought it might have been Ian Dalziel in the crowd, only because of the cheese cutter/cloth cap upon the head of the man behind Ian Simpson, although it was no plaid.
    Was good to see a young lady who had never protested before say she quite liked being heard. Has got a taste for it. She'll learn it takes persistence.

    As Emma said, everyone is knackered. It’s cold, it’s August.

    Ok I gettit. I'll get back to yous in December and see how it's working out for yas ;)

    For what it's worth, I continually email lots of MPs. If I have a question that's what I generally do. Surprisingly, some respond. It is their duty to respond.

    It’s not an opportunity to be part of the decision-making, it’s just a Q and A.

    Um isn’t that precisely what people should be doing ? As Lockwood Smith keeps telling Parliament, “Ask the right questions”. It’s not like there will be door knocking to see if you like it.

    Although reading the comments under Leighs link above. It feels like a lot of people are completely over being ignored and know it is pointless.

    Attachment

    Henderson still had his Russian MiG fighter jet stored in the old Electrolux complex until its recent sale by receivers

    So, a garage then. ;)
    I actually love old buildings, just thought the CCCouncil mightn't. Or as you said insurance did not reflect it's purchase value.
    Here is one I wanted to buy many years ago. Now Mr Jecentho is doing it up for heritage reasons along with his business being in there. The old Oruru Dairy Coop.
