Doesn't mean that there's no danger but, like the calls of terrorism, it's very hard to quantify or challenge official ZOMG pronouncements, without getting tarred with the same brush.
Nail hit on head. so, so true.

crossing the Harbour Bridge.
You mean that up-to-5-lane, largest piece of motorway we have?
No, I mean the Harbour Bridge, funnily enough.

Big Day Out on Spaghetti junction
Hey, there's an idea. Well they were willing to consider closing off the motorway for the V8s to do their thing..
You could do both at the same time. Think of the reality TV opportunities.

North Harbour stadium
Yeah Right. Every Munter from Bluff to Herne Bay crossing the Harbour Bridge. Now that would be a Big Day Out on Spaghetti junction. ;-)

wherefore the Big Day Out? I can't think of another suitable venue.
Western Springs. Have the "Expensive" acts in the stadium and have freebies throughout the park paid for by concession stands and the new fangled super city (that might mean forgoing getting Beckham out here to kick a few balls) Now that would be a really Big Day Out.
As for Eden Park, don't get me started. -
Reminds me of The Sokal affair you know The paper, titled "Transgressing the Boundaries: Towards a Transformative Hermeneutics of Quantum Gravity" What would Durkheim have thought?

What's postmodernism's special claim on journalism training?
If you turned up for your first day at the Levin Chronicle and the chief reporter said, there's a cat stuck up a tree and we need 300 words by lunchtime
You come back with 300 words about the perceived symbiotic relationship between cats and trees in post structural economic theory with regard to Global warming.

Key himself enthused to students in at Waitara College that they would be able to "download a movie in seven seconds".
Ok I'm guessing here but the numbers that flash into my head go like this;
100Mbps= theoretical top speed of the offering (ADSL2?)
7 seconds= 700mb file
700mb file= Xvid DVD rip feature film
Xvid DVD rip feature film= illegal download
Ah, good on ya JK, the free market rules, eh?
