  • Hard News: The March for Democracy,

    But at any rate, it looks fairly sophisticated. They had clear strategies.

    Soo how much for a marketing campaign these days?Hell what do Crosby Textor charge?

    This was not only stupid, it also suggests that they believe that the depth of feeling in the community is much greater than it is.

    Yeah but nah. A bunch of ill informed "stoopid is as stoopid does" people with nothing better to do that day, and Leighton and Holmes or Laws wasn't on the radio. Pathetic. I'll stick with the other 4.+ million NZers thanks

  • Hard News: The March for Democracy,

    "We DEMAND that you" is hardly a nice way to ask init?
    Looks like 15 seconds of fame is not quite enough for the punch drunk pushy ... protesters.
    I think I would be fairly disgusted if that is worthy of an audience. There has been so much that was far more worthy of shall we say Key's sincere attention which in itself has affected the entire country and has entered into legislation.As much as I dislike this lot in power now, I would always want the law of the land upheld. We cannot have Democracy by Demand!

  • Discussion: Uncivil Rights,

    Just wondering if this could be a test case for some of the new legislation on evidence that have been passed recently and if so, could be interesting

  • Busytown: A turn-up for the books,

    (despite being highly opinionated)

    But my latest novel is my 23rd published book.

    Well, I think that qualifies you for the high opinion :)

  • Hard News: Deprived of speech, he sang…,

    Yet last night he unleashed all the music that's in him and it was this ... thing.

    Yes, 2 sides to the brain of which differing stuff does emerge whilst it is rebuilding but I saw the old Chris emerging which is bigger than perhaps was there last week.

  • Hard News: Deprived of speech, he sang…,

    On a geekier note, hearing Chris Knox singing on "Stroke" has made me realise how separate language and speech are in the brain,

    I think this is what prompted me to say hi to Chris and also how satisfying it is to come through the other side of being speechless and paralysed to seeing him bounce around up on stage made me see where his determination was. It looks like he will get there.The importance of time is often forgotten in the rush to get better.There are so many stages with the brain rebuilding. It's like at my age now a privilege to have gone through the stages with an increased understanding of how fantastic our brains are.
