Maybe we need this on the Melbourne trains instead of the duct tape 
and water hose tests they've been conducting the Siemens trains' 
braking systems as exposed on TV last night. Evidently the UK offices 
of the company have nil knowledge of supposed high-tech engineering 
testing that we've been told is going on over there. I believe the 
Connex scandal is about to blow up if you haven't been following that one.

Question: how have we moved from cash to dispute climate study to 
faulty transport systems on a list that is supposed to be about 
internet and IT issues?  <Tony.....>
