if I recall you previously commented on the irony of coal fired power stations lacking cooling water in drought. Some are now saying the flooding of Bowen Basin coal mines is akin to poetic justice or Divine Wrath. See the Have Your Say thread in
http://www.news.com.au/story/0,23599,23089446-2,00.html
Also seeing as how the rest of Australia which really needed the rain missed out. Doesn't look like Nev and Kev will do anything to cut the coal industry so Mother Nature has to intervene instead.
You remember correctly Boof.
I hadn't thought of that aspect - but I appreciate the humour of the situation.
Brings to mind Lovelock's rantings about the earth having a fever - and the coal mines are getting sweated on, big time.
