Sorry to sound a bit earnest, but I'm getting jack of some people (not you) who just flatly refuse to face the facts.

G`day ,

can you explain the LR technical basis the thread exists on and why you placed it here .

Hi PLR, and does it matter?

It's still a good read!

Vehicle emissions are a technical issue. I couldn't find the original VW thread. The actual article was about a judge saying VW had misrepresented what the government authority had said about the VW software update.
The thread has gone a bit offtrack - sorry. Vehicle emissions are important for both health and climate change.

Hi Slunnie, about two months back, I was watching a gabfest on Skytv and Josh Frybenberg was debating with some SA minister, about the “short falls” in SA’s pathetic electricity setup.


Josh pointed out how some times SA produced much of it’s required power and on other times, worst case, they needed as much as 95% to be supplied from interstate power providers.


The SA minister didn't argue the point, nor did he have a answer when Josh asked why SA demolished their last power station when they knew that doing so would mean they could no longer meet their power requirements.


Now we all know politicians “never” lie!!!!!!!!

Actually Mick, I'm the one who should apologies, not you.

I'm responsible for the deviation!

G`day , thanks for your reply .

While i can`t agree with all the logic of your reply that doesn`t matter .

I`d suggest the reason for not being able to find a VW Emissions thread is because previously they have been in General Chat .

It matters even less knowing it is not of concern to others what is in Tech as i naively put an idea forward earlier in the year which made sense to none .

I was interested to know if it was mistakenly put here or not and you have kindly answered that for me .

Cheerio
