(h/t Computerworld via Peter McLennan) -
I recall one neighbour whose car alarm regularly went off at 2am because of the swishing roadside willow leaves it was parked near. They'd eventually beep it without steeping foot outside, after waiting just long enough to disturb everyone else.
After many growls and appeals to re-tune its sensitivity, the closest neighbour finally took matters into their own hands one breezy evening with a swift brick through the windshield. News spread quickly, drinks were shouted. The offending car moved out soon after and peace was restored.

how are we going to raise the billion dollars we need to replace our hundred year old water and sewerage system - it's not sexy like a stadium but it's far more important
And public transport, sustainable energy and affordable broadband infrastructure - cos those are what will count in a decade, let alone several. A stadium without the first two is meaningless. Yet the public continue electing dinosaurs whose vision is more jails and cake palaces for the circus.
