    Just read an article by the new deputy mayor of the Super City, there are no possums, rats or other pests left in the Hunua Ranges after the last 1080 drop. Why is the stuff so magic there but after 60 years of use elsewhere the "pest" problem still exists, worse than ever in many locations.

    And cast your mind back to 2015 when the drop was in August, yet by November (!) the media were reporting the spin doctor's bullshit the (quote) "...Kokako are making a remarkable recovery in the Hunua Ranges...".
    What? Already? Jeezus, 1080 really is magic.
    By the way, I lived only 1km from the Wairoa Dam for 8years before the drop. No Rat plague. No more possums than anywhere else in NZ. And lastly, contrary to all the promises the drops would be carefully managed and no waterways would be dropped into, 1080 was indeed found by Watercare Services in the tributaries, but they kept it quiet until an internal whistle blower outed it.
    Anyone that supports this shit being dropped from the air is either complicit and benefiting financially from the self propagating 1080 'industry', or they are titty sucking naive idealists who'd believe anything if it comes wrapped in spin from 'trust worthy' government agencies like MPI and DoC

    Bit by bit my true character is being revealed through this thread. I will add this to the "f***ed up and naive" label from the previous page.

    I remember a quote I once heard. Went something like,
    "be soft and sweet with the words you speak for someday you may have to eat them"

    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds
