Vapour trails
- To long life vapour trail texter: What? You poor soul, suggest you seek counselling. JS.
- When aircraft contrails do not dissipate it is because the air up there is ice-supersaturated. This is normal for contrails.
- Re aircraft vapour trails, contrails disappear, what you have seen is called
a chem- trail you- tube/google has loads of info and you're right it is toxic.
Other thoughts
- Can someone tell me why when shops legally have to close and I have to work as it is my normal day of work, I do not get time and a half? I am a caregiver.
- To the ratepayer in Napier we poor folk in Hastings also get screwed for a bus service we can not use. What happened to user pays?
- Thanks to everyone who sends in photos for the snap happy section. They are neat to see each day. Some wonderful photos.
- What is your best recycling tip? I use the plastic HB today wrapper to store bone and meat scraps in the freezer til rubbish collection. No smell. No scavengers.
- Re kids getting abused - are you kidding me? Kids and wives are abused in households of every income. Giving more money to low income families won't solve the problem, it wil actually make it worse. Puttin more money into education will.
- The Government is a joke, if they could tax on the air we breath they would......Oh crikey! I hope they don't read this, I may have given them an idea.
- $2million for Maori waka - no way, $36 million for pakeha America cup Ok..yeah rite. Harley
- At times we get annoyed when we get caught in traffic, we have to slow down, we have to wait for road works and agriculture vehicles. Have patience and arrive at your destination safe with a sound mind. MA
