    Woomera has a nuclear track record.

    Somewhere were we can all see it and appreciate it. Why out in the middle of the desert ? Bring it closer to where it is needed. Say Hamilton in Brisbane , perched up on the hill or somewhere in the eastern suburbs or harbour foreshore , sufficient elevated in event of a tsunami , of Sydney . On proud display to all who frequent the waterways.

    Not a power plant though . But the back trails around it made for some nice drives in the last. But to meet my criteria any power station should be a monument to human engineering , so therefore more prominently displayed.

    I think more can be done on the GPS issue. What about the people that don't update their GPS and then veer across a 4 lane free-way when they realise the exit has now moved to the left? Perhaps "update or detonate" zones, if they drive thru without the latest info the GPS explodes?

    Learn to read a map before a gps is sold . Then plan the journey so you know what to look for along the way, soon I will be confiscating food from the silly little scooter and pillion riding delivery services and donating to the homeless. If a London black cabbie can gain the " knowledge " it can't be to difficult to get about without being told by a gizmo.

    The funny side to this is that the "Dictator" that runs this show lives just beside that bridge.

    I see it happening all the time.
    I still think my "update or detonate" GPS zones have merit and so does another forum member even if he doesn't realise it, yet. Or perhaps this is more a case of not being able to tell left hand from right hand, maybe they shouldn't have any hands?
