There is only one way to get rid of debt and that is pay it. Borrowing off peter to pay Paul does not work. Manipulation of numbers is what caused all this in the first place. When you can't pay, and you have nothing to sell you are bankrupt, sorry --thats the word for it Thing is no one has ever seen such a huge mess on this scale before. Its mind boggling that it could have happened, and from the worlds police too.

Well don Par, I hope you stay safe well and happy... I do not intend to evacuate any-where except when using an appropriate toilet facility... I hope to go on an extended cruise in the local region surrounding the Coral Sea, and possibly up north to drink some of Frosty' beer... and deliver some home brew as well as bought brews during my travels...

Bos, have you ever seen dome tents rolling on the water? It's hilarious. We have here a spit of land, "the spit" made of mostly sand, as spits are. No amount of tentpegs hold these things in place and a gust will sometimes take them miles before they fill and sink, spilling tennis shoes and Doritos the whole way! I had a friend that got hit with one once - he claims that a camera in it dented his car...

That works quite well and is known for long. But above waterline I would not recommend Lanolin, it collects dust and dirt like a magnet. On props and shafts it can last for about two years. (maybe less in tropic waters, dunno). Regards Richard

We all know the story of the sparrow that got crapped on while he was cold. Maybe I am a grumpy old pathplug raving, but I know what this place was like before. Our children that got bombarded with tv crap and brainwashed to think this is how it is supposed to be doesn't know any different. Even the history in schools are a different one we learned, and you can guess where the sumpathy now goes to. Troy, for your sake I hope the US...

Just me.
