    God hates the oil industry

    quote: Effective Aug 8, 2005 (signed into law Jun 28, 2005) Louisiana Act No 159 makes 40 plants illegal, including S. divinorum, when intended for human consumption. The law specifically excludes the "possession, planting, cultivation, growing, or harvesting" of these plants if used "strictly for aesthetic, landscaping, or decorative purposes." I remember this wasn't T posting about this a while ago ?

    God hates the oil industry

    quote: 50% of drilling platforms are out of action with over 10% of them sunk. I reckon it's an insurance job , i bet it was the old ones needing a refit or nearing the end of thier use that were effected.

  10. Having used black powder in the past i wonder how they kept the powder dry in the tropics ? Arrgghh.... And while were on pirates does any one remember the "puffy shirt" episode of Sienfeld ? :D "But i don't want to be a pirate !"
  11. While i understand the problem , what about freakin doctors ? I mean you keep going back , getting more tests , trying different drugs and still you have to pay each time they don't get it right ? Yet we accept that is how a doctor and pharmacutical companies work ....

    Another Aussie faces drug jail

    Well it sounds like Indos' got it in for Aussies, my advice if you find your self in this situation is to run , run like a m/f , stay low and keep firing Seriously tho fuck em.....all that time in a third world prison for co-operating is a joke. Run , bribe , punch , kick what ever it takes just don't let em take you down with out a good fight , i mean how much worse is it going to get ? The best alterantive is to avoid Bali(Indonesia in general) until this all settles down , it's just so not worth it.

    Ornamental mushrooms

    I agree , great idea :cool: This, like the recent Ayahuasca result are worthy of further work or even better another test case. I realise that this sort of work happens in the presence of $$$ but surely a fundraiser/donation aproach could go a long way. I am sure an orginization like MAPS would be interested and i know alot of people here as well share the passion. So is it worth the effort ? I imagine that some one here has a law degree or is working on it, so please own up !!!! and let's find out.

As for the German letter , well , you know those crazy Germans may-be it's a payback to the world (Don't mention the war! )By the way does any one else find the name Helmut amussing ? :D
  18. Transcript from Perspective , Radio National, aired last night: Listen in Real Media (link here) Hugh Stretton Monday 19 September 2005 Topic: Australia Fair Program Transcript Seventy years ago I was a middle-class kid in a loving family with a comfortable life-style in a suburban house and garden, with a second-hand car, a two mile walk to a good school, and long summer holidays surfing and bushwalking. Since then Australia’s had enough economic growth to allow every household to earn and live like that if they wanted to. Better still, research in the rich countries is finding that working your way up from a low start to a comfortable middle income does make most families happier. But getting richer byond that sees some people happier, some less happy, many much the same: Above the middle, average happiness and total happiness don’t improve. So in principle – or cynics might say in dreamland –we should be able to distribute income to give us equal chances of whatever happiness we’re personally capable of. Imagine a radical reform that restored our award system and limited the highest earned incomes to three times the lowest.. That needn’t end the productive, competitive incentives that our economy needs. There could still be plenty of competition if incomes ranged from pensions and welfare allowances at (say) $25,000 a year, the lowest paid jobs earn $35,000 after tax, and skilled occupations ranged from fifty up to a hundred thousand after tax, which is what our most productive scientists and social thinkers and public leaders earn now. Only some capitalist owners – owners rather than earners –could still be seriously rich. Of course some of the surgeons and silks and corporate executives who lost income in such a drastic reform would .be unhappy. But the next generation who then grew up to find their places in an established threefold range of earned incomes might be just as competitive, and as keen to earn high on the new scale – but they might also be happy to be members of the fairest, most compassionate and companionable of the rich democracies. ------------- I know how lunatic this sounds. But it may look a bit less silly if you remember some crises that we must soon face. The world is running out of oil and coal and other natural resources. Will people and nations start fighting to the death for what’s left of those dwindling resources? Or will we remember how cheerfully we rationed and price-controlled them, and a lot else too, with mass support and solidarity, when we were short of civilian resources –short of ordinary market goods – through World War II? And there’s a another history, less often noticed, that could encourage a threefold limit on our inequalities Most of the workers who have given humanity its most valuable benefits have not been richly paid . The scientists who discovered and developed antibiotics and other lifesaving medical advances were mostly earning academic salaries. So were the wartime inventors of the radar that equipped the British to defend themselves from the mass bombing of their cities. As a local example, moderately paid public servants and Housing Trust managers contrived the revolution in South Australia’s land and housing markets that attracted General Motors, Chrysler, Mitsubishi, Mobil, British Tube Mills and Imperial Chemical Industries to industrialize the State through a long generation of steady growth and full employment. But there’s no longer any real doubt that our natural resources are dwindling We may soon be debating how to share a declining supply of material goods, and perhaps – the toughest question of all –whether and how to ease our falling income with a peaceful reduction of our human numbers. We already have plenty of loving families with only one or two kids – or none –in the latest generation. But how to encourage that trend – or to enforce it without unthinkable cruelty and injustice – could be the toughest of all the new tasks for Australia Fair. As we face the scary possibilities of mass hunger or civil war for dwindling material resources, the history of our wartime organization and solidarity may still be the best indication so far of our likely values and capacities under stress, at our collective best. World War II followed not long after the divisive disaster of the great depression.. In the same spirit, an economizing, equalizing response to environmental danger might put a welcome end to the neo-liberal surrender to the market that has shifted so many of us off earning onto welfare, and increased our inequalities, through the last thirty years.

    Need help! Special plant very sick!

    looks like shit I would not use terracota pots for Salvia as it almost likes it a bit to damp (but not so damp it rots the stem , collar rot )So next time try plastic. Second cut a bit off , place it in water and let it sprout for further generations.Are you sure it is not a light/fertilizer thing ? Eg: to much of either , the way it seems to be browning from the tips makes me think this could be your problem. When a plant gets a good dose of mites the leaves look kind of red from a distance and then most leaves fall off. This is not the case for your plant.
  21. Uuurrrgghh , me mateys.......

    Recourse for inapproriate surveillance?

    Just write a letter of compaint to your local member of parliment. You see they have to reply in writing when you send a written letter.Then become a serial letter writer , stapling copies of all previous letters to the next one you write and so on......not only is this amusing and a good way to become active in your community , but sooner or later some on will listen. Nb: used recycled paper .

    Caffeine illegal in China?

    Can't comment on the potency of the plant as i never came across it dried , but it did have those purple flowers in the heads like the gear we used to get in the late 80's in Melbourne . It smelled right, looked right and flowered like bush buds do.

    making and selling drug precursors

    The essential oils that contain safrole are ilegal no doubt. As for precursors i imagine the same is true, but the most damming point would be how you explained what you needed them for.So even if by some stroke of luck the precursor was legal (i doubt many are) your dramas are just begining ...........

    Caffeine illegal in China?

    Dali (southern China) is one of the few places I've been where Canninbas grows wild and eveywhere, most of the other places were in china as well. The weird thing is none of the locals are interested in it , it grows just like blackberries grow in Australia like a pest.
