Always wanted that for Auckland and other local places. Love how their site's About>History page is "Under construction".

There are also a series of "who decides what's trivial?" questions which handily take us into big issues like class, race and gender. Which we might want to consider when we dismiss certain subjects as 'trivial'.
True. And you aren't going to learn the skills and background material for that consideration by studying law.

for daring to have opinions different from their own
It's not what we're arguing, it's how we're arguing. Danyl, you say "daring" when many people would read the manner in which your dissent is introduced as exactly those sorts of words you list. It's quite possible to disagree without behaving like a dick. I value your wit - but it seems to fail you hereabouts, sir. That's sad.
