Some New Zealand environmental news (David's choice). [52 kB]
A little humour (?):
Calvin: 'The more you know, the harder it is to take decisive action.'
Hobbes: 'You're ignorant, but at least you act on
it.'
'"The aliens came, from a far distant world
"Bright the next morning, with noisy commotion,
"The tube then sucked up the clouds and the air,
"A hatch opened up and the aliens said,
"Calvin: 'That's my science fiction story. Think it's too far-fetched?'
"Hobbes: 'Not enough, really.'"
--THE DAYS ARE JUST *PACKED*, Bill Watterson
Calvin: 'Once you become informed, you start seeing
complexities
and shades of gray.'
Calvin: 'You realize that nothing is as clear and simple as it
first appears.
Ultimately, knowledge is paralyzing.'
Calvin: 'Being a man of action, I can't afford to take that risk.'
In a large yellow ship that blinked as it twirled.
It rounded the moon, and entered our sky.
We knew They had come but we didn't know why.
The ship slowly moved out over the ocean.
It lowered a tube and drained the whole sea
For transport back home to their galaxy.
Causing no small amount of Earthling despair.
With nothing to breathe, we started to die.
"Help us! Please stop!" was the public outcry.
"We're sorry to learn that you soon will be dead.
But though you may find this slightly macabre,
We prefer your extinction to the loss of our job!"'
