Auckland Uni student's using two wheels to drive? shouldn't it be about mass transit and social responsiblility?

Reminds me of...

"It is completely legal to get knee down on a public road" - Tom.

Care to elaborate on what you are on about.

The name of the group just struck me as odd....as a former lecturer at Auckland University I was continuously pounded with a "collective view", so the Idea of individual freedom of riding a motorycle is in complete opposition to the Marxist views of the University.

I did;
Just gotta use individual interpretation rather than having it spelled out or spoon fed. See the irony about the group name?

This is an exciting thread.

**NOWOOL** · 2nd February 2009, 15:35

Is that sarcasm, or are you actually enjoying the banter? Sorry, hard to tell without pitch and tone of voice.

You're pretty smart for a lecturer. You're not from around here are you?

ROFLMAO!

Originally from University of Washington. Occasional guest speaker of computer sciences and artificial intelligence at NZ Uni's.

Still on a restricted motorbike licence though, so haven't learned everything, but always pushing everyone to learn everything they can!

It was blindingly obvious and refreshing at the same time.

You'll enjoy NZ - there's lots of artificial intelligence here.

Thanks for that. I thought it would be obvious to most of the fish school but I couldn't resist baiting the darwinistic stragglers.

Afterall, ironry is a staple of humour.

I thought an example of ironry might be a fencing staple!
