    Good on them
    You forgot to add the bit about still laying off staff as soon as the subsidy ended. Something HLG did not do.

    but aside -- it didn't do much for WHS SP either -- did you miss putting in a larger buy at elevated levels to demonstrate
    support for WHS ?

    I remember that too -- how many WHS staffers went walking again ?

    I forget was it 700 or 1000 they laid off while hundreds of head office staff are on over $100K. A real bastion of social equity and justice...NOT !

    Of course it would have been if he meant it, rather than calling people's views "tiresome & juvenile" because he doesn't agree. Then went on in the very next post to congratulate Balance on the same subject just because he agrees with him. It could be construed as somewhat hypocritical.

    Some strongly held convictions by contributors. Perfection is a difficult state of affairs.

    Which is all okay imo - vigorous discussions and debates can bring out outstanding conclusions.

    W69 will be W69 - ever cynical while being incisive and retrospective with his postings to provide perspective. He annoys but has his heart in the right place.

    Beagle will be Beagle - posting with high conviction be them positive or negative to challenge perspectives but as we all know fondly, he can be plain barking mad at times.

    This forum would be a poorer place without the likes of them.

    So chill, folks - we all pass through this path of life but once.

    The low level this site has degenerated to, has meant a lot of decent knowledgeable people now avoid it.
    The personnel attacks are disgraceful,and as a community it has lost any sense of respect.
    I know if I were Vince and owned the site I would close it down.
