Best I can do is a single t-intersection on a 80km/hr road with no traffic lights to gain access to the whole suburb and roads so winding and narrow inside the suburb that you couldn't fit a bus in there even if you wanted to.

But I will throw in a bus stop (sign) on the other side of that entrance for that bus that only runs three times a day to the CBD at 9.15am, 12.25pm and 6.25pm, how about that?

    There are always environmental trade offs. You can be damned sure if we continue pumping out CO2 into the atmosphere many, many more creatures will die.

    Killing a smaller number in a lake seems like a tradeoff I'm willing to make.

    One thing Infind disturbing is peoples definition of nature seems to have morphed into something more akin to a garden, or perhaps a farm.

    Living in Tasmania and bearing witness to what we do is a true horror and yet the occasional visitor who stays at iur plce seems enthused by the rolling verdant grassed hills that surround us rather the ecological horror it truly is.

    Doesn't surprise me that the numbers are back up, I saw plenty of signs of horses when I was up around Bondo a few weeks back and even had one launch out right in front of my bike while going along Firey Range. Didn't see any dead horses though which was pretty common a few years back before a few efforts at shooting them.

    I hope they don't go and close off large swathes of the area for months again though like they did with the last concerted effort at aerial shooting in the north of Kosciusko park.

    It seems like the edges would be easy... If the panels aren't floating directly on the water, you could either make the height above the water enough that the rise and fall wouldn't let them touch the ground, or simply use an angled panel that arcs up higher.

    Apologies for not answering sooner: I've only begun going-through my nearly-900 notifications, now..

    I don't know if any company makes such things, but inkjet-printing-on-fruit/vegetables, with soy-based non-toxic-pigments can't be "impossible" to impliment.

    Hell, even an inked-stamper would work, right?

    This whole thing is only a problem because it's still done wrong.

    Both inkjet technology & inked-stamp technology could easily solve the problem, with nontoxic inks.

    I don't understand why everybody didn't' see that potential, tbh..

    but then I'm autistic, & so a tech-oriented awareness..
