Todays penultimate piss off is unthinking clots who drag a simple conversation out by just being stupid..... Not fucking dumb, but unthinking.. Conversations that can be held in very concise, to the point terms... They get dragged out - if you let them, where the matter should be discussed and acted upon in 3 minutes or under... and the other people will drag it out for like 15 minutes or longer....

That 10,000 people were dumb enough to obey orders, by idiots, to get used as target practice, while the weapons manufacturers made huge profits.... And everyone who refuses to be stupid enough to be used as target practice, gets shot for insubordination.... by idiots...  So we have thousands and th

I like to collate information - 2 reasons - it's gets the bigger picture from a range of sources in the one place; and if the source ever goes off line - it's still available. Origin Energy? Loads of BAD news about them... http://indymedia.org.au/2012/11/13/origin-energy-under-scrutiny-over-anti-renewables-stance Origin Energy under scrutiny over anti-renewables stance Mon 12 Nov 2012 By takver Australia Sydney climate change CSG energy Origin Energy Origin Energy, Australia's largest energy retailer, came under intense scrutiny today from shareholders at the Annual General Meeting in Sydney over it's energy portfolio placing great emphasis on development of gas, poor investment in wind and solar power, and a campaign by Managing Director Grant King to destabilise the Renewable Energy Target.
