If it makes you feel better that means nothing compared to the land we shred and turn into lovely houses. We need to drastically change how we view society or we're doomed.

I know things are hosed and overpopulation sucks, but I have hope that the sheer vastness of this great country will prevail. Even driving from Sydney to the Gong you see enormous, endless lands where we don't go, that are probably full of all the bugs and creatures we don't see as much. I have faith they'll still be there long after Sydney looks like this:

Also does anyone else remember clusters of spitfires? I remember in school they were like "at little lunch you can absolutely not go near this tree, a hundred little cattapilers will vomit acid on you"

Obviously we all poked at it and they weren't kidding

Harmless sawfly larvae

Processionary Caterpillars can cause pregnant horses to abort their foals

I stepped on a white stemmed gum moth cocoon as a kid, took weeks of elastoplast dressings to get all the spines out, tweezers break them, I then, fascinated by them, kept some for a year from egg to caterpillar to big moth.

Cup moths are really neat.

I just found out that there is a Sydney Bus Museum in Leichardt. Busses used to look pretty funky.

quote:

Dennis Lancet II - 1492
Engine
6.5 litre Four cylinder Dennis diesel engine, bore 4.6", stroke 5.9" developing 82 B.H.P.

Transmission
Five speed synchromesh with overdriv to a worm drive differential.

Brakes
Lockheed hydraulic assisted by a Dewandre vacuum servo.

During the 1930s, the Department of Road Transport & Tramways (DRTT) designed a standard single deck bus design, suitable for fitting to various types of chassis manufactured by various firms in the UK. The design seated 34 passengers, had front & rear entrances and positioned the driver in a separate cabin ahead of the saloon. They became known as the 'half-cab' buses, and 79 examples were built on AEC, Dennis, Leyland and Albion chassis.

Six Dennis single deck chassis were ordered between 1936 and 1938. The first two were bodied by Syd Wood of Bankstown, and the following four by Waddingtons of Granville.

492 was built by Waddingtons on a Dennis Lancet II chassis. It was registered m/o 1492. The bus served out of Burwood and later North Sydney depot.

This bus, and the other three Waddington's buses (1496, 1499 and 1503) had four cylinder Dennis engines, which were difficult to maintain, made worse by the impossibility of getting spare parts from the UK during World War II. Accordingly, they did very little mileage and 1492 was withdrawn in June 1947 after accruing only 137,584 miles.

It then spent two years languishing at Leichhardt Bus Workshops (now the site of the Museum), and in 1949 was sold to Punchbowl Bus Co. West Bankstown Bus Service acquired it from Punchbowl in the early 1950s, who ran it until it was finally retired in 1958. The bus was then sold to a grazier at Warren in country NSW for use as a hay shed.

In 1978, the body shell and chassis was discovered and arrangements were made to tow it to Sydney. Restoration was completed with grants from the Australian Bi-Centennial Committee, the NSW Heritage Council and through volunteer work from the Museum.

The problematic Dennis engine was replaced with a Perkins diesel during restoration, however the bus is currently off the road awaiting some further work.

All this talk of school bugs reminded me of the monkey puzzle tree from a school I went to in the 70s.

Someone obviously had decided to get a tree that kids would be unable to climb for safety reasons. And decided the best way to do that was buy a tree covered in incredibly sharp spikes.

So, naturally, when the leaves/branches fell off every year in foot-long clumps, we used them as swords and shredded each other's legs.

Perfection, just like the NSW councils that decided the trees next to park playgrounds would all be those insane spiked plants with the wierd bean pods, or the extremely itchy seed pods trees

You and your loving bugs mate :glomp:

And I've been driving around here in the Tweed at dusk, evening and night on the M1 and local rural roads. It's unusual to see any kind of bug on the windscreen or licence plate. No bugs seem to eat my veggies. I never see bees. The only thing around here seems to be the loving mozzies the cunts.

In the psychological battle stakes, we are stripped down and ready to go. I want to see those ashen-faced performances; I want more of them. I want to be encouraged. I want to see you squirm.
