ttbn,

You stated in your opening post that "only 7% of Australians
are interested in the virtue signalling of climate change."
It was to that remark that I responded with a link. I did not
try to disclaim the order of importance of concerns that
Australians had. But I did find that as shown in my link
and an earlier one in September - that more than the 7% that
you quoted of Australians were concerned about climate change
and renewables.

As for my qualifications, experience, and what kind of a
life I lead - that has been well documented on this forum.

Whether you are interested in it or not is
irrelevant. It's there on file.

As for your
qualifications, experience, and life?
Your attitudes and posts
speak for themselves - and you are judged accordingly.

If you don't like my opinion of you - as I've told you
in the past - you can always improve.

Have a nice day.

cont'd ...

ttbn,

Your use of terms like - "bee's knees," "font of wisdom,"
also "clever," and "greatness" in reference to me - indicates
some sort of deep-seated inferiority complex on your part.
I suspect you really want to be liked. Change your attitude
it may help. Oh, and I do have a very full and rich life.
Now I have to go - and continue being fabulous. ;-)

Dear Foxy,

You are the only reason I even glance at his posts and even then it has been a while. If you were a kindly soul you would of course save me the bother by ignoring him but I know how it can get sometimes.

Be that as it may I did get a good laugh out of this;

"You have an ego that makes Donald Trump look like a shrinking violet, the difference being that he is smart, and very successful."

So 'my dad's bigger than your dad'.

However rewarding infantile behaviour with attention is a little self defeating don't you think?

Foxy and the moronic Steelerudux,

You just keep on sneering. You are less than nothing in the scheme of things. I recall that you wished me dead some time ago SR. I'm still here though. Are you two an item, or perhaps a threesome with Belly? You are well suited.

ttbn,
"According to Essential polling, only 7% of Australians are interested in the virtue signalling of climate change as an election issue."

A surprisingly high figure.
I'm interested in actually doing something about climate change, and I regard it as an election issue, but I'm not so interested in virtue signalling.

Of course the reference to "virtue signalling" was just your spin in a pathetic attempt to belittle the issue; nothing to do with what the poll really said.

The actual results are at http://www.essentialvision.com.au/category/essentialreport

"The top three were as I stated. There was NO MENTION OF CLIMATE CHANGE at all in the question."

Not in that question (the Important issues survey was the second question of eight; the fifth and sixth related to climate change) so even disregarding your "virtue signalling" lie, you're still wrong.

Now, looking at the results, the 7% figure was for those who regarded Promoting renewable energy as the most important issue. That's 2% short of Improving our health system (on 9%) and 1% short of Housing affordability (8%) and is ahead of National security and terrorism, and Promoting economic growth (both of which are on 6%)

The total figure for Promoting renewable energy was 20%

I think you owe us all (and particularly Foxy) several apologies!
Not that there'll be any, of course. Your attitude reminds me of a classic Fast Forward skit:
Sir Joh: "You are wrong, Jana! You are wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong....."

Dear Steele,

My husband wants me to quit the forum.

He keeps asking me - "Why do you bother replying
to those people - don't waste your time on them."

However, it's not all doom and gloom for me. I do get
surprised many times. That's what keeps me coming
back. I've learned so much - even from who I considered
to be difficult people. And equally important -
I have learned to do quite
a bit of self-searching as well. And some of my
thoughts - I have begun to question too, so I don't
think that's a bad thing.

I keep hoping that our inter-actions on this forum -
will somehow end up in - some
sort of understanding and civility.

Then there are
posters like yourself, David F, Belly (whom I've known
for ages), Paul, and many others, that make it all worthwhile
for me. Reading those posts brings me so much joy - makes me
laugh, and even better - makes me think.

I'm not ready to give up just yet.
