Re: Murph's surf report

I'm not sure what is worse; the inaccuracy displayed when describing the conditions, or the terrible spelling and grammar.

I know that all the swimming coaches insist upon it, but why is it important to breathe on alternate sides when swimming? Apart from the fact that it might be nice to do, what genuine 'flow' advantage is gained over someone who has good style otherwise but breathes only to the right, or the left. G...

Sorry, but you guys talking about breathing whilst swimming appear to be clueless. The main advantage to bilateral breathing is that it ensures a balanced stroke. If you only breath to one side you are likely to swim somewhat lopsided, and not rotate properly to both sides (plus it can give you a so...

They also have bought shares in Phillip Norris I think it is :shock: Pub club ban will be like the Dave McCallum ad. There's no one else in the pub but him. I was in Ireland 6 months after the ban and pubs had closed down, others were going broke, a few made a small room in the centre glassed it of...

Every packet of Winnie Blues a smoker is paying almost seven dollars in federal/state taxes. He/she will probably save the country about 15 years in old age pensions/benefits cos they'll have the grace to shuffle off that much earlier. And you pricks a worrying about cleaning up 3000 lousy butts. w...

No, the facts remain that the countries who produce 55% of the world's greenhouse gases have ratified the Kyoto agreement. The reason your website says the international community doesn't support Kyoto is because it hasn't been updated since Russia signed in November. The one big fish that got away...

Even if the justification for Kyoto is proven correct, it is ridiculous to suggest that Australia should sign it when major polluters such as China, India and Indonesia are not subject to the same terms and conditions as us. And anyway, we are meeting our target. Therefore, it can be argued on econ...

Why is caring about the future of the planet and the people on it the sole domain of the left? Mate, mother nature doesn't care who you voted for. Agreed, but it is Labor and the Greens who are introducing and voting for private members bills in parliament calling for the government to ratify Kyoto...

Within 2 paragraphs, you mention that the Kyoto protocol is flawed, but that we are still cutting emissions by the same amount as it demands. Does that mean that what we are doing is worthless and that we should be doing more? Or that the protocol may be effective, but we don’t want to be bound to ...

I agree that the Kyoto agreement is fundamentally flawed, and it is pointless for people aligned to the left to continue arguing for Australia to sign it. The International Community has rejected the Kyoto agreement as an effective long term strategy to combat climate change and flaws are being reve...
