  1. @IDTransponders @WiderScreenings @goCIAS and @BreendaEdwards unfollowed me [ checked by fllwrs.com ]
  2. @cr0atz I'd do some of my best work when sleeping. Discussion helps identify the bits that are worth a closer look. Thnx. Goodnight from me.
  3. @cr0atz The carbon tax has shone a spotlight on the problems. It didn't create our ageing, energy-inefficient smelters, factories. #auspol
  4. @cr0atz A perverse outcome: China grows, builds NEW plant. Shut aluminium plants (10% electricity demand)=>No new generators needed! #auspol
  5. @John_Poelwyk ALL old plants with low efficiency are in urgent need of modernisation. AND our grid investment is too high. Not #carbontax
  6. @cr0atz Japan, Germany did well by the 1960s - had brand new factories after WWII. Every industrialisation wave is same. China new. #auspol
  7. @John_Poelwyk Australian electricity prices are the HIGHEST in the world. No carbon tax. Ever wonder WHY? blog.gerbilnow.com/2012/05/tony-a… #auspol
  8. @John_Poelwyk The carbon tax DOES no harm to aluminium smelters. Aus plant is 50+ years old. China, and Alcoa Portland are new. No problems.
  9. @cr0atz Don't you find all the obsessive whinging over 1 cent #carbontax out of 30 cents too silly? There ARE problems - in the other 29!
  10. @tysoncrosby Renewable energy. Its a Gas. (No #carbontax) #auspol twitter.com/Askgerbil/stat…
  11. @John_Poelwyk :"Massive damage" Carbon Tax Alarmism. Massive dummy-spit over ONE CENT! You just don't get it! blog.gerbilnow.com/2012/05/tony-a… #auspol
  12. @Schnappi5 Tony Abbott has more policy positions than the Kama Sutra. :) #Abbott #NOTpmMaterial #auspol #carbontax

  14. Carbon Tax - The world's biggest whinge over ONE CENT. Tony Abbott Just Doesn't Get It! blog.gerbilnow.com/2012/05/tony-a… #auspol #Abbott #NOTpmMaterial
  15. @WayneSense "..manipulating the data" or you are deluding yourself. See: "U.S. undergoes warmest 12 months yet" news.mongabay.com/2012/0510-hanc… #agw
  16. @LizBuff46 #LNP nepotism AND kickbacks - B.A.T. funded #Liberal who had C'th pay growers $26M to accept a B.A.T. offer: alpineopinion.com/2009/03/03/sop…
  17. @GalileoMovement YOU cherry-picked a small part :) "US undergoes warmest 12 MONTHS yet" news.mongabay.com/2012/0510-hanc… #cooling #delusion #carbontax
  18. @james00000001 Even better! 7x11x13=1001. Thanks :)
  19. @12trust Ever wonder WHY electricity is so expensive? Like Tony Abbott, you JUST DON'T GET IT! blog.gerbilnow.com/2012/05/tony-a… @theprojecttv Carbon Tax
