Default Rain: philosophical question

In a drought, how many rain days do you need before it's PC to wish it
would ease up? Here in Brisbane, dams at 20%, hardly lost a day from
rain in several years, I've got damp three days in a row and today
will go again. At least it's 23C. Hmmm, time to break out the hardtail
and hit the puddles hard! Rain on! (oh, too bad about the cricket).

On 2007-11-08, Donga (aka Bruce)
was almost, but not quite, entirely unlike tea:

I believe it is still classed as seditious talk, and a little purple
LED has lit up in the console of ASIO's control room right now to warn
them of your thought patterns.

You are not allowed to think that way ever again..

With fewer new dams being built and expanding populations, we will
constantly be in water-shortage (restrictions) mode. Any other
thoughts may expose the complete lack of foresight of our state gov-
mints.

Also, any talk of drought-busting rain does not gell too well with the
gerbil worming group-think.

You can blame the greens for both, if you like.

Hit em all at the ballot box.

That and people's refusal to accept recycled effluent. They're
already drinking it (and swimming in it at the beach), just the
recycling process takes a lot longer ;-)

OB bike content: I don't mind riding in the rain, moreso now I have
full length mudguards. My feet got dunked at the bottom of the pedal
stroke a few times yesterday.
