Engineering sector person talking Renewable Energy, Climate Change & Sustainability. Also boring conventional things like the sport.

I have several referees, whom are currently uncontactable at the moment, due to your primitive communication systems.

You sledge cricket talk when you're not on the air, champion.

I reckon my life can be divided into two halves. There was no clear transition, but somehow in the second I have found myself shouting 'ALL DAY' to teammates batting in the middle and meant it totally unironically.

[Matt Saxon @Paracleets]

Apparently the designers of Fordow had review process issues just like the Empires Death Star engineers that lead to exactly the same issues..

@JohnJackdevine Let 'em know law 19.7 says its only runs completed on in progress at instant of the throw if it goes for a boundary

A Watto level review from Ashwin #AUSvIND

[Matt Saxon @Paracleets]

In fact looks like i was saying it 5 years ago.

[Matt Saxon @Paracleets]

1.5 degrees is going to happen. With effort and good policy we can keep it under 2.5 and bring it back relatively quickly.

"Quickly" here still means a long time on a human scale.

[Matt Saxon @Paracleets]

I was on the 'we won't keep it below 1.5 degrees' before it was cool (sorry). https://t.co/Cprac1llBc

[Matt Saxon @Paracleets]

Under no circumstances are we going to keep Global Warming to 1.5 degrees. It's far far too late. The best we can do it hope to come in at and around 2 whilst praying that is sufficient to forestall the destruction of civilization.

@RicFinlay WA Bowled out for 53, but 6 consecutive ducks to finish the innings. List A record?

Update: Found it in that ramshackle 2nd hand bookshop in Ossie Park for seven fiddy.

@Brad_Hogg Brad you can't get a copy of your book for less than $70 bucks online. You don't have a box of 'em out the back do you?

@freodockers "It's that damn Hansel! He's so hot right now!"

[Matt Saxon @Paracleets]

@RicFinlay Well some people probably would be reluctant to grant it retrospective first class status fearing its a gateway to to test recognition. Given most of the senior people involved in WSC are now either dead or over 80 surely the slippery slope argument is a thin one now.

[Matt Saxon @Paracleets]

@RicFinlay I'm sure this has come up before but I'll raise it anyway. I know there have been rumblings about trying to get the WSC cricket supertests recognised as tests, and it's been continually rejected (and I think on balance fair enough).

[Matt Saxon @Paracleets]

@collinsadam You mean sprayed it to the right right?

[Matt Saxon @Paracleets]

I suppose what I'm ultimately saying here is we should be able to acknowledged the alleged behaviour as wrong whilst decrying the charge as a fit up, and explaining why.

[Matt Saxon @Paracleets]

I’m not entirely comfortable with the consensus seemingly emerging that what Kerr allegedly said was not racist (I mean putting aside the views of the right wing grievance brigade that should always be disregarded). To me it doesn’t actually seem that there is a contradiction..

[Matt Saxon @Paracleets]

I mean do people really want to accept the ultimate logic of saying it’s not racist? (I.e that’s its okay to call someone a white so & so unironically under any circumstances? Or that it's all right for an indigenous West Indian to call one of African descent a black so and so?)
