Everyone please see the bright side.
This is better than the cold war days... good on them all.
The trouble..yes well worth it... the leader of China is here for goodness sake.. Mr Howard will push the case for a cheap 20 inch dob maybe.
AND the reality of wasting money is ..it goes somewhere and whilst its moving thats the only time us little folk have a chance of a few crumps falling... so there is no problem its alll good.
Histroic Climate Change will be discussed, and although nothing will be set in concrete I feel it is wonderful that at least by the raising of the issue the concerns some folk have are at least getting an airing...
Leave the politics out of the event and see it as a money making event... someone has got paid and soon they will be out in the economy buying stuff...maybe from you.
I dont like protests but one was begining to wonder if protests died at the end of the Viet war... everyone will have a great time and feel they have made a difference... and no doubt at the end of it all things will be a little different ..how I have no idea.
