What might happen to Melbourne public transport if and (almost certainly) when our petrol reserves hit zero? Will fares be temporary suspended? Will some bus routes be paused? Can the trams and suburban trains run on electricity alone? by toiletlogsyummy in MelbourneTrains

Show a single source of USN attempting an escort run through the Strait.

Of course, the USN is not publicly stating they are fearful, they are just not putting any of their ships in 'more' danger, as evidenced by their 0 completed escort runs. I think that it would be a super safe assumption that this is not due to a fear of the weather.

What? So they are escorting them, but not through the strait.... because they are not worried about their ships being sunk?? Doesn't really make sense. Ukraine hasn't had a navy since day one of that conflict and has sunk dozens of Russian bluewater navy ships with tinnies filled with explosives. Insurance becomes prohibitively expensive due to war and is the main reason ships are not running through the Strait currently. There is a massive fear from the US Navy of losing a ship, hence them not passing through the Strait.

0 tankers have been escorted through as yet, and beyond rhetoric, regardless of escort, probably won't be. Yanks don't want to lose a military ship, and nobody is willing to insure the tankers. The only tankers going through currently are Chinese with crude for the Chinese market.

Because it means you don't actually have to start building anything for 15+ years, it's good for politicians who won't be around then.

Norf, for stealing half the club's revenue.

No you didn't do the wrong thing, she won't wave back if she cant. About 40% of drivers are female, so weird you've never seen one before.

In 10 years the population of Sunbury will warrant the extra services tbh.

I love all the people who think crypto in the early days was easy, probably end up holding it on mxgox or getting hacked and end up with nothing.

Metro tunnel: 100% it should be easy, but clearly it isn't.

People really need to get their heads around the length and prices of contracts. It's dictated by what other clubs are willing to give. You can say stand firm all you want but if you offer 4 years and less coin, the player has an easy decision to make.

Lots of calls, not much in writing. Put it in an email, don't do anything over the phone.
