Whoops! Goofed again. He attended Clemson College, thus he probably supported the Tigers.

Re: Easy pop shots at OZ labor Govt.

China's ownership of the Australian wine industry is so tiny it is insignificant. Their capacity to buy bulk wine in Australia in bulk tankers does not exist. They can buy that cheap wine in other countries, Australian wines could not compete in that sector. It won't happen. As for Barney's stateme...

Re: US Presidential election odds

A few thoughts from Hollywood and one or two real life U.S. politicians have been rattling around my brain this morning. To illustrate, Trump reminds me a lot of that Huey Long (Governor of Louisiana) character played by Broderick Crawford in 'All an individual's Men' (1949). He also has a touch of ...

My apologies LYM, it was India not China that changed the names of provinces to be called states.
No problem. We mere mortals are prone to err from time to time.

Re: Future energy sources?

As I said, very little difference between states and provinces. China as an example renamed provinces and called them states....same, same. You are going way off topic again Khun Whistler. For your information, you are incorrect. China has Provinces, not states. Hope this helps, China has 33 admini...

Re: Future energy sources?

Canada does not have any states. The difference between a state and a province, apart from the spelling? Not a lot IMHO. Harassment alert! Canada still does not have any States. I trust the following helps: What is the difference between Province and State? There is a difference between the power s...

On every public space, every cemetery plot and village green, the daffodils are in bloom. These flowers are cultivars but in a handful of places, the rare wild daffodils can still be seen growing in plenty. The wild plant, Narcissus pseudonarcissus, is smaller than most cultivated types. Two-toned, ...

Re: Private Property Rights

You also have to ask the question of how these squatters first gained entry into the the house since they were not born in it and were not invited into the house, by the Owner or another Authorized person, that first time. If they didn't walk through an open door (which is highly unlikely) then the...

Astrange music rang out over the Howardian Hills. Sounding like the tooting of bugles, it was the cries of a flock of whooper swans starting their long migration home. After a winter spent feeding in the British stubble and wheatfields, they were on their way back to their breeding grounds in Icelan...
