May - coffee and conversation at Rustik

25/5/2017

 
David, Terry, Peter and myself met at Rustik on the 25 May at 3pm . Len was an apology and Brent was en route to if not in Canada.
 
Consensus seems to be that the afternoon was decided as our meeting time at our last Techsavvy Talks meeting. 
 
We discussed the Grattan report (refer previous post) into the difficulties facing the NEMO with the currently unworkable arrangements of state governments doing their own thing and the commonwealth making add hoc decisions about building more taxpayer funded generating capacity all with no coherent policy.
 
Peter* brought an interesting article on tyre pressure monitoring which would be very useful for those with expensive tyres as I found out recently.
 
Next meeting - fourth Thursday at 3 pm at Rustik!
