  1. @amaBhungane @Jen_Thorpe I'd take nuclear over fracking any day. Unlike fracking, long term pros, cons, dangers of nuclear are well-known.
  2. @Jen_Thorpe @amabhungane Solar, wind are of course preferable but they won't solve out baseload problem. Coal or nuclear #lesseroftwoevils?
  3. @charliehuman That's the plot of the season 5 episode of Doctor Who, "Vincent". Very touching. Also visually awesome.
  4. Old habits die hard. Putting off going to sleep coz I'm afraid I'll feel worse when I wake up. Cant hold on much longer though. o_O
  5. @FionaZerbst I'm totally down with my heated beanbag tonight. Forgot how warming it can be! #lowcostheating #eskom
  6. @AmandaSevasti Wow, beautiful. But what a foreboding landscape. Can't imagine what it's like being there.
  7. @alexeliseev This thing can hear a cellphone ring on Neptune. Cele obviously wants to use the SKA to intercept politicians' phone calls. :P
  8. Are you serious?! RT @pinkykhoabane Newspaper vendors earn on commission only. The ones I interviewed for a column earned R520pm...
  9. I cant find a copy anywhere! RT @clarkformaths: I hope you all leave some City Press's for the rest of us!
  10. @phillipdewet Sold out round corner at Woolworths too. Assistant said "Ei, what about that ANC boycott?" :P
  11. @phillipdewet Vendor I spoke to in Parktown said #CityPress sold out at 8am already. Very unusual he said.
  12. RT @washingtonpost: To some, it's about more than Zuma's genitals. It's about SA's chasms and its past: wapo.st/JBYyuc #zumaspear
  13. Woolworths in Sandton wins the prize for the most well-hidden escalator in shopping. o_O It's completely surrounded by hoarding!
  14. Awww. NYT story about a photo in which a little boy touches Pres. Obama's hair to see if it feels like his. nytimes.com/2012/05/24/us/…
  15. @art2gee Whats a tweetnote? No official briefing?
