Foxy,
Same here. I posted on a thread in the articles section and I just went to see if there were any comments and, like you,it is gone.

I assume it is to do with problems the website is having.

We may all get withdrawal symptoms after a bit.

Foxy,
The post i am missing is not in my history either, so there you go, i don't know what has happened. Its likely floating around in cyberspace somewhere. I expect the experts are working franticly and up to their elbows in grease.

I tried to get on here several times today without success. Not being able to access OLO is a bit like running out of smokes, as i recall. Is it that addictive?

One thing that may interest you. I just caught the tail of what i think was an announcement,last night, that the government will be making an apology to the 'forgotten Australians' on the 16th November(I think)

huffnpuff will be pleased and i wish them all good luck. I'll see if I can get there for that.

Dear Banjo,

Thanks for responding. My previous post is not
in my user file either.

However, I do remember reading it after posting
it, on this thread. Which is a bit strange - that
it did get posted and appeared online on this thread
but now it's disappeared.

That's what I don't understand.

It is good news about huffnpuff though!

Dear Banjo,

I've just discovered another post that's
disappeared from another thread.

Is anyone else having similar problems?

Good post CJ.

Bob Brown is getting a fair bit of media about his opposition to Rudd's manic growthism. Of course he and the Greens should have been doing this years ago, but at least they have finally seen the light...or the dark future that massive population growth threatens to bring upon us.

Now he really needs to develop his arguments and hound Rudd to the max.

And as per my last post, Turnbull needs to seize the moment and start advocating a genuine sustainability paradigm with a stable population of no more than 25 million.

So our esteemed PM is now threatening to withhold billions of dollars from the states if they don't open up much more land in order to accommodate his enormous population growth. http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/prime-minister-kevin-rudd-flags-a-federal-takeover-of-urban-planning-rules/story-e6frf7jo-1225791944446

Rudd has no mandate to do boost Australia's population growth rate. The first thing that he did when he won power was to greatly increase immigration. But he hadn't even mentioned this in the election campaign. He is not serving the people. He is not doing what the voters would want. He is not doing what predominating scientific research indicates in terms of the relationship between population growth, quality of life and environment.

He IS doing what the big-business vested-interest lobby wants.

He is not acting in accordance with the principles of democracy. He has GOT to go at the next election.

Ludwig,
Come on old fella, be realistic. The Greens will not continue any sustainable or population/migration debate, except for this one statement by Brown. The Greens will shut up and toe the no comments line, especially as we get closer to election. They rely on Labor preferences to get their Senate seats. So their ideology is put aside.

Turnbull is also bound by the agreement not to comment on immigration matters and why would he anyway, both major parties are in the pockets of big business.

I know you are keen on the sustainability thing, but unless one of the major parties breaks the 'no comment' agreement, immigration or population will not make it as an election issue.

At present you are having false hopes.
