Spam Email FAIL

Got fine print?

Wednesday, June 4th, 2008

Reading a recent advert that made it’s way into my inbox, I was bemused by the amount of small print and clarifications you see in advertisements of this type.

Is it because consumers are too uneducated or the product supplier over complicating a product?

Seems to be like this across many products and services these days, maybe it’s defining human stupidity.

Baby Tax?

Thursday, December 13th, 2007

Some random professor with too much time on his hands:

“Every newborn baby in Australia represents a potent source of greenhouse gas emissions for an average of 80 years, … a ‘baby levy’ in the form of a carbon tax should apply, in line with the ‘polluter pays’ principle.”

mmm we’ll have to stop at two then :-) Don’t you just love the Internet where we can all have an opinion, no matter how outlandishly obsurd.

More opinion articles on this one here.
