Apparently at the behest of the U.S. Department of Justice as other climate bloggers have received nasty grams (cache) from our friends across the pond. Last I checked the climategate e-mails [...]]]> http://www.anonymong.org/2011/12/15/climate-sceptics-the-new-wikileakers/feed/ 1 http://www.anonymong.org/2011/12/09/occupy-where-ever/ http://www.anonymong.org/2011/12/09/occupy-where-ever/#comments Fri, 09 Dec 2011 00:50:57 +0000 Giolla http://www.anonymong.org/?p=2100 Yes once more I’m returning to those crazy kids of the occupy movement, in a week where the LAPD have reportedly been destorying occupy tents* apparently up in Edinburgh the little bit of weather they’ve been having has cleared that camp quite effectively.

Yet again the idea of a referendum seems to be throwing the euro-project into chaos and confusion, it would [...]]]> http://www.anonymong.org/2011/11/01/light-the-blue-touch-paper/feed/ 0 http://www.anonymong.org/2011/08/16/danegeld-and-riots-for-all-reasons/ http://www.anonymong.org/2011/08/16/danegeld-and-riots-for-all-reasons/#comments Tue, 16 Aug 2011 23:41:08 +0000 Giolla http://www.anonymong.org/?p=1893 So almost a week since the looting and huge swathes of forest has been sacrificed to discuss the cause of the unrest and more importantly who was to blame. I am of course going to add to the sound and fury being generated, mainly because some of the commentary has rather tickled my sense of [...]]]> http://www.anonymong.org/2011/08/16/danegeld-and-riots-for-all-reasons/feed/ 0 http://www.anonymong.org/2011/08/09/lazy-comparisons-a-go-go/ http://www.anonymong.org/2011/08/09/lazy-comparisons-a-go-go/#comments Tue, 09 Aug 2011 11:50:19 +0000 Giolla http://www.anonymong.org/?p=1868 Seeing as today seems to be a day for lazy comparisons I thought I’d join in the fun and games, the relationship between my tongue and my cheek is left as an exercise to the readers.
