    In the trenches is fine bob, each side has a purpose good or bad, it's not knowing who the enemy is with this bloody thing & there are so many "couldn't give a flying ****" types out there.

    Let us hope Scomo's secret weapon (the Ad) works or at the very least makes 'em think on.

    We can but hope.

    Maybe so, but nowhere near as disappointing as the fact that some people are using fear mongering to scare people out of getting the vaccine.

    Anti-vaxxers rely almost exclusively on emotional appeals rather than facts or logic.

    I always wondered why there was a dictionary in the glovebox of my D2, taped to the drivers manual. Educated Defender drivers, I thought they were just the Millenials.

    Why would anyone even bother listening to an anti-vaxer? Bizarre.
