Here are a few links that may clarify who exactly the Wheeler Centre is, what their aims are, and why it makes sense that they are at the State Library. It should also reassure posters that they do maintain a balance in issues. Answer- The links didn't change my view that the Victoria State Library is an inappropriate place for the Wheeler Centre given it's apparently extreme left management- but like I said previously I need to research the management more.

If not knocked on the head, this example will be used as a new tool thanks to the morons handing out the prize.

Foxy Why did you not come out with your amazing information when I first asked you, simple your where tying to be obstinate and obstructive.
If you made up the word why would you use it without explanation as to its meaning in your opinion. Also if you made up the word why would you say other authors do it. I am going to go back and transcribe every word you said on that thread to verify what you say I do not recall you stating at any time YOU MADE UP THE WORD as you state now. Quote "I tried to give you a clue by telling you about a pig named Grunter (because that's what he did). A pig with attitude. I was talking about you." The truth will come out very soon when I have finished transcribing it. Quote "And as I stated earlier - it's all way over your head - but don't worry about it. I don't." ** We will see who's head it is over if you are lying. ** Posted by Philip S, Thursday, 7 February 2019 7:21:03 PM

A race to the bottom.
Activist who spat on staff at a council meeting is awarded a $30,000 taxpayer grant to draw comics. A young activist who pleaded guilty to charges of offensive behaviour after spitting on a local government official during a protest has been awarded a grant to draw comic books. Nicky Minus has been given a taxpayer funded $30,000 grant by the Australia Council for the Arts in support of her 'freedom of artistic expression' despite her pleading guilty in a court, The Daily Telegraph reported. During a 2016 Inner West Council meeting with community members who were protesting the WestConnex development Miss Minus was caught on camera spitting on Inner West Council administrator Richard Pearson. Miss Minus was lucky that Mr Pearson didn't want to 'infuriate protesters further' and decided not to press charges for common assault. Instead she was given an 18 month good behaviour bond and escaped having a conviction recorded. Spokeswoman the Australian Council Brianna Roberts told the publication that the grant was given to Miss Minus to 'uphold freedom of artistic expression'. Applications are assessed on merit and there will always be differences of views regarding which applications are supported,' she said. 'Grants are assessed by an arms-length panel of expert peers, according to published criteria.' Comic books written by Miss Minus in the past have focused on subject matter such as United States President Donald Trump and misogyny. After being arrested by police miss minus told them she wasn't aware that spitting on another person was a criminal offence. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6677755/Activist-spat-staff-council-meeting-awarded-30-000-taxpayer-grant-draw-comics.html Posted by Philip S, Thursday, 7 February 2019 10:51:30 PM

You really don't get it.
I provided a link on the other discussion
about immigration, from registered migration agents.
Whose information I found to be "amazing."
You objected to the word. And then asked if I could
provide you with what I found to be so amazing> I did
not take you seriously because all you had to do is
click onto things like - business visas, bridging visas,
citizenship, employer sponsored visas, family, and so on.
They provided a whole gamut of information. Yet you still
focused only on the word I used instead of reading what
was being provided.
Then as for gruntlement. You again didn't get it.
The word was never used in the book I described to you.
I made up the word because I thought it suited you.
I tried to give you a clue by telling you about a pig
named Grunter (because that's what he did). A pig with
attitude. I was talking about you.
And as I stated earlier - it's all way over your head -
but don't worry about it. I don't.
