Re: Timetable Changes

...and not to mention they didn't make it overly obvious that if your bus isn't on the big long list, it isn't affected. I spent 5 valuable minutes cussing over the loss of my bus route when I finally realised nothing had changed!

Re: Vision: Light Square Tower - 100f / 500m

I would much prefer to see the Adelaide CBD covered with 80 metre high buildings than have one building like this Maybe you should visit some third world countries and many in asia and the middle east which are full of apartment building about that height. It looks terible. We need taller buildings...

Sometimes allowance for historical significance costs money. In this case, it'd be very sad if the docks at Port Adelaide were never to see tall ships again. $80 million dollars is a small price to pay to preserve this....
