[COM] Re: #COM: Rundle Lantern

you need to have about 10 blocks wide which I think is available on each side?

I don't know how easy it would be but I reckon it would be an interesting exercise.

[COM] Re: #COM: Rundle Lantern

This may sound stupid but, what would be the chances of organizing a tetris competition on the lantern? I realise it sounds geeky, but how much of a laugh would it be (for charity even) to have people playing it on say a saturday or friday night. There seems to be enough cells to do it. I guess the ...

Re: #U/C: Port Adelaide Tram Line

I gather the question needs to be asked Just because it happens elsewhere or in the past does that make it correct? IMO no it doesn't. The PT system needs to be flexible and provide adequate facilities for the relevant time. I stopped taking the bus because as previouly mentioned more often than not...

I'm fairly sure its on a tenant by tenant basis.

When the tenants lease expires the works will get done.

Re: #PRO: City Busway - O-Bahn to West Tce

Why don't they use the old tram line for a new tramline to Norwood. This Idea seems more absurd as time goes on. I guess you have never caught a bus along Grenfell/Currie St during peak hour?. Even if the O'Bahn is eventually replaced with a train line, this project is still needed for the large nu...

Don't we already take electricity from Tasmania and Victoria?

Re: Ideas on how to attract more people to SA?

I really think that SA could benefit from being a power supply for the rest of the country. I see no reason why we could not create a number of large energy stations based on a variety of means (Nuclear, Renewable) which supply the country and potentially the surrounding countries I realize it would...

Re: #Vision: $779 MILLION Western Suburbs Tram network

A brilliant idea that will get so many detractors that it just won't happen. I'm also unsure if the councils will be able to raise that much capital? You would think there would be some federal and state assistance involved but thats a lot of money. It would be great if they could start work in the ...

[VIS] Re: #PRO: Royal Adelaide Hospital Rebuild

We should include the location of the RAH in the vote, its not a hard thing. along with the voting slips come - do you want the hospital on the railyards or in it current place.

[VIS] Re: #PRO: Royal Adelaide Hospital Rebuild

because the universally panned labor one is so much better?

I know everyone has political persuasions but far out, we need alternate ideas of course people are going to call it a patch up, but the plan by labor is hardly convincing. I even read somewhere that they are going to reduce bed spaces?

It's a great idea. But quite frankly, I don't care how they do it, that Hospital needs fixing ASAP.

Re: #ARTICLE: Report proposes 100,000 seat city stadium.

I have always wanted to know what peoples infatuation is with a 100k seat stadium. What’s the point? We will never fill it on a consistent basis. What SA need is a well located 50-60k seat stadium close to the city. Which Adelaide Oval is becoming (well 37-40k at the moment? ) Personally I would rat...
