Iemma cautious over new poll

NSW Premier Morris lemma is refusing to get carried away with
opinion polls suggesting Labor will easily win the March state
election. lemma needs a wake up. He cannot continue to be smug and think it's all in the bag. The people of NSW are more than angry Morris and it's you, and your team that have caused the problem. Did you really think that saying that a filtration system test failure on the new Lane Cove Tunnel, would be enough to convince us that the new road needs to be opened after the election, and not before ? The truth is, you're scared. Your scared that the incompetences of Ministers Scully, and Roosendal, will come to haunt you at the polling booth, if the road opens before the election.

Don't be scared Morris, it will anyway. People in NSW are sick of the way we've been treated. March 24th will prove that.

Debnam considers desalination plant

Debnam considers desalination plant "The NSW opposition says it has never tried to hide the fact it might consider building a desalination plant in southern Sydney if it wins the state election."

I have a problem with this. It's not that people may or may not be drinking de-salinated water, or may or may not be drinking recycled sewage, it's more about why not.

I think we should have not one single de-salination, or recycled water plant in this state. We should have dozens, all pumping water to the inland where we can once again reap huge benefits from our farms, and our land. There are billions of people wanting food in the vast sprawls of China, Africa and India, all we need is the foresight to water Australia and get cracking on a grand master plan for our nations agricultural wealth.

First Post on the New Blogger

This is my first post on the new Blogger. I was somewhat disappointed with the fact that the template is not drag and drop as promised. Apparently this is only available to new blogs you create on the new site not to old blogs converted over from the old site. This sucks !

Update 12/12/06
Digg says it's Bloggers problem and they won't be updating this feature until blogger comes out of beta ... like never.
