  1. Long article on city planning and where planners get it wrong. From 1966. Boris, Kit take note... http://tinyurl.com/y85nq6d
  2. RT @secretlondon They [buses in Lockerbie] also cost about £1.20 single. #notLondon < until Jan 2nd, when they'll cost that here.
  3. @pickledpolitics sadly nuclear has better lobbyists, which is still what matters in the UK. Breaking that is the key.
  4. @pickledpolitics Where is the UK's investment in clean energy and green tech innovation? < exists, but is small scale.
  5. @AdamBienkov might be worth asking what *internal* communications exist regarding Charlie's intervention, rather than the letter itself
  6. @bradderslondon I was talking mainly about people who say 'hydrogen's the future, the only emission is water' when it's patently untrue.
  7. @johnb78 quite, the mark of a civilised man is that he recognises the right to publish and the good taste not to.
  8. @bradderslondon it's an energy vector, really, not a fuel. Electricity isn't a fuel either, of course, they're analagous.
  9. Why do people still think hydrogen is a fuel? Good way to spot a nutter, that.
  10. Cheeky. Prince Charles has apparently written to Boris twice since he's been Mayor. @DarrenJohnsonAM says he'll try and get them released.
  11. @Helzbels Peter Hall on out of town shopping centres (1972) - http://tinyurl.com/ygrwco2 < he opposed the Ealing scheme Boris backed
  12. @Helzbels 'Large-scale use of the computer for education may seem pie in the sky at the moment. ' < next term Alf's doing podcasts...
  13. @Helzbels Is that the Voice of the Daily Mail?
  14. @Helzbels 'RE teachers need more than a Bible these days' - 1972
  15. @Helzbels http://tinyurl.com/ybgeega - Schools of the Seventies (my comp was built in 1973, so this'll be interesting)
  16. I love it when a load of random hacking comes together
  17. @Helzbels it's solid evidence for their supposed golden era (68-78 was RM heyday) not being particularly golden, really
  18. @Helzbels I'm staggered by that find by the way - there's stuff about street clutter in the 1971 one. History is indeed circular.
  19. @MattTempest However I saw him in Jilly's Rockworld, preceded (since MES was late) by a pint with the then bassist.
  20. @Helzbels @MattTempest Manchester University union was in the Steve Biko Building when I was there.
