Bye

Thanks for all the fish geocities.

Geocities is closing down in 2009 :( ; See you, thank you to everyone who's visited this site.

Welcome

This web site contains two fairly neutral topics about galaxies and diodes. For those who like more emotional web pages, take a look into the politics section, where I discuss problems and possible solutions for each topic.

I have also introduced the topic of China. This country is fast becoming a major economic power in the world. Australia will probably develop greater trade ties to China as it's economy grows.

The politics tab contains subjects on:

Technical subjects, like information on diodes and galaxies are referenced to show I have consulted other sources of information to back up my words and for you to use as checks or expansions on the topics covered here.

The politics section is more about unreferenced emotional subjects. I would consider the technical nature of these essays on my thoughts are developed from a large range of life experiences and knowledge.

I have listened to the debates in parliament. I suspect politicians probably:

1. write essays on their thoughts or simply contemplate the subject and issues;
2. then consult historic information on the subject;
3. adjust their own step 1 thoughts based on step 2 history;
4. finally the politicians listen to groups with vested interests.
5. Incorporate ideas in step 4 and step 3 to form a final opinion on the topic.

Once they have gone through those four steps using their memory or paper notes, they do the readings and committee debates as required. In this process, you might consider my essays as step 1 through to step 3 (without formal reference except to myself). The feed back from this web page would be step 4.

One major difference between me and a politician, is that they may put much more weight on step 3. That is because politicians need to:

These needs are so important that politicians can even ignore what they write or think in step 1 and step 2.

The only vested interests I have is to see lots of happy people, eat healthy food and know that people like my dad can continue to travel the world and live anyplace they find a port or drop their airport baggage.

Finally, I have found out that many of the things parliament make decisions on are automated. Some like to say let the robots do that task!

To the common person this is similar to having your bills paid automatically or the hot water system keeping the water hot for you. Automating or getting robots to do stuff does not mean that somehow you are not aware of it anymore. Most of us keep an eye on every bill and the performance of the hot water system ( "heck, did you use all the hot water again?" ).

Simply going along with what the automated decisions process is for parliament does not mean that the politicians are not aware of the process or not making a decision to allow the automated process to continue for another cycle unaltered.

The "hidden okay" is still applied between the different parties that make up politics. I am sure there are a few closed door discussions that occur with any automated system of decision making that are almost de facto "debates in parliament" regardless of what politicians admit in public.

Thank you

	There will be no scheduled up dates or corrections of this site for the foreseeable future as I have had to throw away most of my stuff and now live on campsites (a more or less homeless state of life) due to social problems, laws, real-estate agents attitudes to renters and the high cost of rental housing (housing shortages). Since this site can not have links to provide proof of these problems, I will have to state that such proof is currently out of the scope of this document. Never the less, I hope you enjoy your visit to this web site. I would very much like to get back to work on this site if my environment changes for the better! Thank you for visiting :).
