Nice to know Britain's not unique in stupidity about elementary economics.
In the land of Oz, a report has just been issued presenting the current drought as - a business opportunity! Those few areas where there is a good water supply will become sought-after areas for houses! Money money money!
Areas such as Hobart, in Tasmania, and surprisingly Perth on the west coast.
Just one thing - to buy the new house, you usually sell the old house. Since that will be in a dry area, you'll have to sell it cheap, or not at all.
Seems the Ozzie press, like the British, is so dazzled by the idea of PROFIT that they lose all wisdom.

Medilingua & Rudy Giulani
A new site, Mondo in Medilingua. To illustrate Medilingua, a development of Novial, and thus related to the other Latin-based languages.
It mentions You-Tube and videos of presidential candidates, incl. Signor Rudolfo Giulani. Who's bad luck. He was in New York for the 9-11 and London for the double 7 (2005). If he's elected, what'll happen to Washington?

Prediction. For April
From 5th April, 40 000 unemployed who claim that they can't speak English will have their benefits cut, unless they sign up for English classes. Prediction:
OH NO THEY WON'T.
English classes for immigrants are already freely available. The Gumn, as usual, is talking about making them available, as if they'd never heard of them.
The Gumn (Government) is continually threatening to cut people's benefits, even by only a small amount. For instance, for anti-social families. But they never dare and it's soon forgotten in Britn, where the average person has the memory of a 3 year old (except for showbiz, natch).

Mauretanie. Esclavage ou pas esclavage?
Les Wikipedies ne semblent pas sures de ce qui se passe dans cette ancienne colonie francaise, en Afric de l'ouest. Si l'esclavage persiste ou pas.
Selon la version espagnole, il "fue definitivamente abolido en 1980".
La version italienne ne le mentionne pas. Mais elle remarque "la tensione e ancora una delle principali caracteristiche della vita politica."
Portugues : Em 1982, foi a ultima pais a abolir a escrividao.
Neerlands: in 1981 werd officieel de slaverny afgeschaft.
L'Afrikaans n'en dit rien, mais elle fait mention de les "Haratin", "voormalige slawe".
Les versions scandinaves n'en dit mot.
Dans l'article "Sklaverei in Mauretanien" - Es gibt Beispiele von "humaner" Behandlung.
Il semble bien probable que l'esclavage existe encore, et que l'ONU etc. ne s'interessent pas le moins du monde.
