12 month's Reflection on this Blog.

It has been a year since I commenced writing this Blog. Just a year ago, I wrote this:

It is finally Spring here and lately it has been raining and has been very windy. We do need more rain because of the prolonged drought. There has been quite a deal about climate change and mostly blaming Man for it but it is so apparent that it is definitely an cyclic event and has more to do with the Sun than the actions of Man. Currently there have been a prolonged absence of sunspots there and this has been causing most of the World's climatic shifts. I do also believe that Man has not been helping things by pumping increasing amounts of pollution into the atmosphere and dumping his gsarbage without really developing strategies or suitable technology to get rid of it permanently.
Nothing much seems to have changed except we have had plenty of rain and the drought is well and truly broken here in Tasmania. We still have the climate change doomsayers about ,prattling off their mantras. I am still about and so are you.
Nothing has altered with my comments either about this :
I don't believe in blindly following any political party or movement and not a member of any. I believe that one should be independent and not tied down to a single train of thought of philosphy. If anything I am in the centre politically and a moderate. Politicians should be regularly changed and should not be completely trusted.
This still is true and nothing has changed. I'm personally disappointed David Fry was not preselected for the electorate for Bass and is reportedly considering his future. Well I hope he stands as an Independent. He would be an excellent MLC. I also think that Jeremy Ball would be excellent as deputy Mayor in the upcoming Launceston Council elections next month. I am not a greenie but think the alternatives for the position leave a lot to be desired. Jeremy has impressed me with his pragmagtism and honesty.
