The Premier of the State I live in was on morning TV this morning talking about the recent floods in some parts.

At the same time major areas of the state are still considered Drought affected by the Government.

In 1890 somthing Dorothea Mackellar wrote a poem that goes a little like this :
I Love a sunburnt country
A land of sweeping plains
of rugged mountain ranges
of drought and flooding rains!!
The poem goes on to say other stuff. But the important thing is Dorothea wrote this poem after only a short visit to Australia after she had returned to England http://www.imagesaustralia.com/mycountry.htm
The comments of our Premier Steve Bracks this morning that made me want to leap through the screen and slap him up side the head so hard that parts of his tiny brain wouldnt stop bouncing in their empty vessel for a week were :
"this weather is extrodinary" and "people thought it would never rain again"
Well no Steve you gibbering imbecile... this weather is EXTRA-ORDINARY its so ordinary that someone not even native to this country observed it as being the NORM after one short visit over 100 years ago. In addition to say "people" thought it would never rain again... I will interpret for him since he only speaks gibberish and it reads..."stupid people with no conception of the random non linear nature of Australias climate and no grasp on history, thought it would never rain again"
I swear to $@#^&;* GOD people's ability to reason and use history as a predictor of the present and future has all but evaporated in to a dark age mentaility of superstition and stupidity over the last 10 years or so...
You stupid people (and you know who you are) scare me to death!!

lol I'm right there with you my friend...
Your argument is like a two legged dog with an eating disorder...weak and unbalanced.
Thank gawd we have reality TV to bring back some sense to them.
Is it interesting that there is always a place in politics for the truely obtuse.
And people are surprised when I voice my dislike of democracy.

If it makes you feel better, we've been enduring a severe drought in my section of Florida, with water restrictions and dying lawns and wildfires. It's been gloriously raining for three days straight, and ALL I've heard is complaining that the rains are ruining the nice weather.
Drought....BAD! Rain to restock a desperately shortened water table, allowing us to wash our cars and not burn to death in wildfires and...oh, not worry about runing out of drinking water....GOOD!
They live in Florida, it's freaking sunshiney tropical joy at least 300 days of the year.

It seems pretty consistent throughout the world.....
We have strange inexplicable droughts in an area that has 10 million more people living in it than 40 years ago. And 1 million more people living in it than last year.
And everywhere else has antediluvian floods.
Except round my house. Where we used to get floods every year, but 10 years ago the farmers completely upgraded the irrigation. And now we have none.
And the bee's are all alive.
