The Loose Association of Wargamers

I might start producing the 707. You know, the Iranians still fly them?

Good work LT. So was I for a lot of years. I'm still fighting that fight for people to say 'now' instead of 'at the present time'. It's largely a losing battle for some reason.

You want un plain English, the NDIS is a hotbed of it. They mingle tne inglish lingwidge in ways which frequently leave me incapable of comprehension. And they are trained to talk that way, god knows how they ever get laid.

Yep. SWMBO was engaged as a freelance to draft releases and guidance for the NDIS at one stage. She hated it, as everything seemed to go through a reverse bullshit filter before release. And it's got a lot worse in the last 5 years as the Feds try to mask the fact they are treating that budget as a piggy bank for pet ideological projects.

But they aren't saving money. The amount of labour involved in a $300 wheel replacement for my wheelchair vastly exceeded the value of the transaction.

Yep. It was originally a great idea, that has been stripped back so that the services are even more costly and greatly reduced. Ok. I'm in danger of veering off into the political. No more NDIS discussion for me.
