    Population growth exacerbates housing crisis - Bernard Salt

    Those wind turbines are a magnificent thing. I feel like I've warped into the future when I see them. And stuffed if I know what the issue is about noise? I was standing right under one in Tassie on a real windy day. And any bird that flew into one must be a bit dumb. See ya's.

    This does annoy me somewhat. Why do Australians want a population of 34 million in 2051? And most of the immigrants moving into Sydney and Melbourne? Well that would be fine if these two cities were the manufacturing powerhouses they once were, but as we now rely mainly on digging stuff...
