Its world wide, not just Australia? This a good condensation of what is afoot. Though he cant be a geocentrist, he called the world a planet. (grin) James is definitely not from the mainstream of science. MS hates him more than they hate the Bible. His is an electrical rather than newtonian universe, and I can relate to that.

(Physics) March 12, 2007 posting ... sure is a lot of strange political maneuvering going on around the planet at this time ... but the most important as far as you are concerned is the phony "global warming" surge you are witnessing ... everything from al gore at the oscars pumping global warming and "saving the planet" (just like he invented the internet) ... and scientists who have hung their careers on the global warming pork barrel funding (and do not want to see their gravy train end) are all in on the game ... but there is the catch folks - boys and girls - grandmas and grandpas ... cause this affects each and every one of you ... behind the scenes is the following HUGE issue and they are using "global warming" as a front ... water ... yup ... notice how each time you hear about global warming that the second thing you hear is there will be "flooding and draught" and food shortages ... HMMMM ... the agra businesses and the water control businesses are VERY BUSY taking over your local water supplies and distribution systems as they already have taken over your food supply and replaced it with non-food that only they can grow ... this has happened world wide and they have been busy all over the planet squelching the private farmer ... everyone from the smallest peasant farmer in argentina to the biggest independent farmers in the good ole USA ... water control and control of its ownership and distribution are at hand and your friendly local governments have been busy turning over your water supplies and its distribution to large corporations ... once that is is place ... then you will start to see the price of water go up ... and up ... and up ... and you are going to wonder what happened ... and you will hear over and over that it was due to "global warming" ... and geeee ... who is not in favor of conservation and stopping global warming ... but the reality is that it is not man made at all ... it is a natural condition of the sun and we are also just coming out of an ice age ... and further more ... if there is more heat in the atmosphere then there should be MORE water in the atmosphere (ask any third grader and they will tell you that more heat means more water content in the atmosphere ... not less) ... but ... SHHHHHH ... don't tell al gore or the movie stars they are soliciting to help save the planet ... or hollywood who can make some more blockbuster movies about it ... or your local smoooze noooze news paper or evening news who will repeat it until you are blue in the face ... the base question is ... how on earth ... on a water planet that has more water than dry land ... can there be a water shortage ... well this is being brought to you by the same people who created the "oil shortage" ... there never was and never will be an "oil shortage" ... it is a control and distribution problem ... a created problem sponsored by your friendly local government ... just like there is a monetary shortage created and controlled with phony money that is floated by ongoing eternal phony wars ... the same crew ... don't you think it is time to stop cow cowing to the last few remaining morons on this planet that have not figured out the game and get rid of the scum on top once and for all ??? they are the same crew ... why do you think bush is hi tailing it to a south american country with NO EXTRADITION ... hmmm ... you better believe he knows people are on to him and after him ... in columbia recently crowds got within 200 yards of him and the scurried him to the air port ... the crowds were not going to hurt him ... they wanted him very much alive to face international war crimes hearings and trial ... just like he did to sadam ... as his ole man daddy bush works behind the scenes in argentina to take over vital farming lands of indigenous farmers and create owned water reservoirs to control water resources in that part of the world ... while his side kick bill and his ex hillary are busy with the Clinton Global initiative to take control of many other aspects of world wide resources ... yup ... these guys are old business partners and still going strong ... but back to the main point ... control of your water supply ... it is happening fast and you are already your only source of clean fresh water ... get a clue if you have not already figured this out ... jim mccanney
