Hard News: The Wall and the Paper, in reply to Danyl Mclauchlan,
My impression from the interview is that the decision to fire Laws would be well above Kemeys' pay grade.
Most things seem to happen when he's out of the office anyway.

(On that subject I must say I was quite struck by how Craig in person is even more Craig than he is online - if that makes any sense. And I mean it strictly as a compliment.)

(Hope I haven't just re-proven Giovanni's point.)
I find that everything proves a point I made at some time or other.

My view was that Gareth Morgan was worth reading
Who, the globe-trotting financier biker that the Listener has turned into a permanent advertorial for?

Hard News: The Wall and the Paper, in reply to James Butler,
After all, any publicity is good publicity, right? Right? Anyone?
No. I would probably buy the Dominion Post if it was just mediocre, as opposed to both mediocre and racist.

epistomologist
Is that the art of finding openings?

Hard News: What Now?, in reply to nzlemming,
This is one NZer to whom it would not appeal at all, and I know plenty of others.
One of the things that struck me the most amongst the civil defense instructions on the aftermath of the quake was to deal with the munted sewers problem by 'going in the garden'. Not everyone has a garden, folks. Not even in New Zealand. That one had me screaming at the radio.

Okay: Justine knows two very clever crafters who make jewellery out of broken china and are planning to come down to Christchurch and offer the service free of charge to residents as a way of salvaging some of their cherished things. I bought one of their pieces for Justine a while back so I can vouch for the quality, and thinking also about what Emma wrote upthread this strikes me personally as a great idea. However they need a venue as the school were they were going to use is no longer available. Does anybody know of a place they could operate from? The dates are 1st, 2nd and 3rd of April.
