wisdom

I will try and get this right, lost my memory a week ago and have been in an induced coma. Now in Wesley hospital in Brisbane awaiting some form of heart surgery.Why am I saying this is because not looking for sympathy, but struggling to remember things.I get so angry with the CYC , it's CYC first and bugger anglers.Trying to blackmail anglers on this over their own design failures is morraly wrong . There was also a covnenant at the top end of the ramp which guaranteed this turn-around space. For many years, guess what.... Pat Conlon overturned it and in all my real estate dealings, never h

There are three files on the RFL held in SARFAC, most likely held at the BIASA office Flaps.The Chairman must know in which cabinet they are stored. There are two ring binder files (very thick), and one other bound document which was given to the Labour Party before it's annual conference some time back to endeavour to change the Parties policy on this issue, but unfortunately failed. All documents have the history from the NSW and Victorian start-up. Included are calculations on expected revenues and other interesting data.The CYC file is in a five drawer A4 plastic drawer set under the hea

They don't Flaps because I advised some time back " to never get involved in Chat Forums" and for once it seems SAFAC must have taken this advice.

If you choose not to talk to me Ugly then I don't care but you should read the CYC file held in SARFAC. It has all the history collected over the last ten years including letters between the then Minister, CYC and the town planning committee. See the current Chair of SARFAC, he has been briefed on it all as well over several years and should be willing in the interest of anglers to pass the info onto you for a read.Trust me anglers are being screwed again, this time by the big end of town......again !Altogether now I have given you three people that can fill you in on this and preceding eve

Two things ugly, if someone else goes public on what I may have said, then that's their problem.Besides if you really have a desire for the truth then ring me, or ring who I suggested. Is that so hard. or are you just lazy?u

You are very much all of the mark. There is ten years and more of aggravated history surrounding the CYC, SARFAC and the SABFAC, and most of it very dirty.I cannot repeat what I know here, but happy to do privately, but I can say that the CYC doesn't, give two hoots about anglers, and by the way that ramp was built with SABFAC funding and Minister Conlon did you all in at the last set of changes.It's all about the big end of town and their mates ! try the GM of BIASA, he along with myself know all the dirty history.

Maybe with tongue in cheek Silaflex, I may be able to help you here. Many years ago a good friend of mine in Sydney ( artist, historian and journalist for Wacker Fairfax), often liked to stir the establishment using his historian background that he believed that if you have brown eyes then you likely have native ancestry ?

Same magazine shines more light on how NSW D P I view artificial reefs.Bet PIRSA will shaft anglers. In SA on this one too !

If you have that much support Tackles, then therein may lie the danger. Every one running around up blind ally's and achieving nothing, except spinning the wheels.Wouldn't it be smarter with all that support you talk about, to channel all that energy into just one important issue for anglers and when that is achieved move on into another. Trouble is, with respect, I don't believe you. Anglers are still a disorganised force taking whatever is dis

What changed Shannon ? Well SARFAC did....... For the worse ! For me, probably a lot wiser. With regard to Rapid Bay jetty, I was confident that over time we could win the restoration / new build debate and we did. To be successful one has to develop strategies that are not pipe dreams (achievable), otherwise you run around like Chicken Little moaning that the sky is falling in !Let the the jetty go, it will look after itself if it is to be a goer. Concentrate on issues that are more important tangible and achievable.

It's OK to aim high, but when resources are thin and with limited energies future prospects are best directed to those opportunities which have a good chance of success in the short term otherwise anglers could loose out on both ! I don't see the jetty as a "good chance", unfortunately. It's called priorities.The jetty should be allowed to run its own race and concentrate energies on the snapper, garfish and MP issues which will have a far greater impact on anglers. In my view changing the culture in PIRSA will have far more benefits for anglers than a jetty no one clearly wants to maintain.

I am interested in Shannon's questions to ExxonMobil's executives this week, which were relevant questions to the issue, but it seemed like a dead-end with no response !Secondly, if the power supply as reported, has been cut off from the jetty, then so has the cathodic protection to all metal parts. I have seen what happens when the cathodic unit is shut down on jetty and wharf structures, the old Rapid Bay jetty is a prime example.Reluctantly, and without a survey, I would have to say that the point of no return has already been reached, in other words " no hope ", better to put one's energie

Starting to sound like a mutual admiration society !

It gets worse, I just voted and amongst others on the "big white sheet " was the " Pirate Party" and also the " Sex Party ", believe that ?God help us, come to think about it, that wouldn't work either as I believe ALLpoliticians are morally corrupt and a few are legally corrupt, they are the ones that end up doing time. The others get away with it because the public let them !

Hope so !
