They are showing a particular grace & dignity that is to be admired.
I'm not looking to place blame just a little knowledge of mountain conditions and how quickly they can & do change.

"I have a cousin with a degree in irony studies."
What would your cousin make of Simon Barnett hosting "Stars in your eyes", still promoting all of the best Hits. <clap of the hands, onto the knee & a kick - da daa>

"Isn't that socialism?"
Yes, but of the best type, Socialism for the Rich.
We pay our taxes so All Blacks don't have too (if some had their way); so rich corps can advertised on the sides of boats; so LOTR can make a bigger profit.
And you thought it was for health care and education - that's what user pays is for.

Kim I'ld like a bit more involvement from all cnrs of society. I think Chomsky is an Anachist - they claim him as one of theirs (Pharlap phenomenon) - so I wouldn't dismiss a political belief out of hand.

Yeah that guy with the Harvard PhD ...

Excellent joke, well played.
Annoyed I missed it but well appreciated now.

Um did I get taken in hook line & sinker?
righttosmack are a joke, right?
They're not serious right going for 1minute kid bashing.
The thing is I knew a few kids who had 'Spank Banks' & hospital visits once the brusing went down, to reset the bone.
It must be a joke - that's Russel waving his finger - isn't it?
