Belly: you seem to think you are always right (Indy)

Well..., if you're right you're right. Ay. A Compromise in such a case means the person who "IS" right has to say that they are partly wrong, which is wrong. The Party that is wrong has to admit that they are also partly wrong. Therefore the final decision ends up being wrong.

The person who was right is not really happy with the decision because they know that the Decision is wrong. The person who was wrong is not really happy with the decision because thy had to admit that they were wrong.

The Consensus of the final Decision hasn't really pleased anybody or made anybody happy. Therefore the Compromise is a False premise & due to fail.

Can you imagine a Consensus between two groups. One says the World is Flat & one says it's a Sphere. Just what would a Compromise look like. A Semi-flat Football. So now they have to announce to the World that the Scientists all agree that; You can fall off the edge & that the World is held up by an Elephant standing on the back of a Turtle & it's Turtles all the way down. ;-) & that makes everybody happy. Ay.

Belly: the ability to think differently, is our best hope.

Yep, I can see that. Ay.

Belly: Say both sides start right now a national plan to send water inland and build dams as pumping stations to do it in stages
First thing is both sides agreeing it is the right way not the ugly current water war based on one river system.

I not long ago got a Facebook form the "Draft North Queensland Plan." I read through the many, many 10's of pretty Pages & learnt nothing.

I sent them an email & asked if they were going to put the Top on the Burdekin Dam. & if the Coal Fired Power Station at Abbotts Point was included in the Plan.

The reply I got was, "Please explain what, "put the top on the Burdekin Dam" means." There was nothing about the Power Station at Abbotts Point.

Some background Information here.

When the Burdekin Dam was built it was a "Compromise." The Dam was built 10 Meters Short. the 10 meters was to be built at a later date to provide storage for the future Hydro Electricity Station. All the Space & Building Blocks were put in place & all that was required was to install the Machinery. However when the ALP took over from Joe the first thing they did was to fill that space with Concrete & cancel putting the top on the Dam. That's the Dam part.

Abbotts Point: When Abbots Point was first Muted to be a Coal Port an agreement was reached that a Coal Fired Power Station was to be built at Abbots Point to supply Electricity to North Queensland. That was the clincher for the Deal. Ok, The Jetty was built. the Deepest Port in Australia. But, then the ALP came into power & the Power Station was conveniently forgotten about.

As was the Gas Pipeline from New Guinea. I unloaded the Pipes for that Project & now they lie rusting & abandoned in the grass just outside of Townsville & Cairns.

It have been almost 2 weeks & I have not received a reply to my explanation. That tells me a lot about the Plan & the people that are running it. Ay

Jay B ok but leave the biases out and tell me, should we like Israelis try to green the desert
Should again, take on a snowy mountains type project to try, try being the right word, to drought proof some parts of this country
With towns as big as Dubbo to run out of water why wait?
Every side has thought about it, no one yet tried
Why

Jay B ok but leave the biases out
Belly,
Jayb stated facts, nothing biased about that ! If anyone here is permanently biased it's you.

Belly: ok but leave the biases out and tell me,

What Bias?

Belly: Should again, take on a snowy mountains type project to try, try being the right word, to drought proof some parts of this country.

Too bloody right we should. We'd have the money too if we'd stop sending it overseas in the form of the Jizya Tax (Aid) to Countries that spend all their money on their Armed Forces &, or, build a new Capital.

Indy: Jayb stated facts, nothing biased about that ! If anyone here is permanently biased it's you.

Thanks mate.

Jay B my reference was not to you being biased, indy gets it wrong often
My thoughts are enforced in the thread about the Liberal lady currently in the news
People are defending her just because she is a Liberal
Yes we agree find new ways rather than offshore detention to forever stop the boats ,spend the billions on STARTING a one hundred year project to get water inland
Build the nation, food one day, will be our biggest export
