Has SFA to do with my statement :
" and every new Brisbane suburb opened up by developers since then has
Electricity, phone, and foxtel/Telstra all underground, the only
poles are light poles."

Or in fact your "Lie" claim for "Existing power is being put
underground"is full of holes e.g.

"The project is part of a record $4 billion-plus five-year capital
expenditure program currently being undertaken by ENERGEX. In the 2009-10
financial year ENERGEX is investing around $940 million on upgrades to its
electricity network while a further $360 million-plus has been set aside
to maintain and operate the network – that’s an overall average of more
than $3 million a day."

just some examples :-

http://www.redorbit.com/news/technology/1341780/energex_begins_to_upgrade_southern_brisbane_electricity_network/index.html


Any search of Real Estate sites in Brisbane and South QLD reveals the
increase in underground power and cabling for older suburbs as well as new
ones.

But, don't let the truth get in the way of your cemented on opinions Rod,
it would be totally out of character.

The most contentious / not correct part of the above

As a friend of mine observed, the only reason that sewers are

underground in Sydney is that they don't have strong enough poles to
carry them.

Are you aware that in too many cases the conduit that contains the phone
and internet cable/foxtel is too small to have any thing else forced
through it?

Anyway the decision has been made to include above ground fibre (in large
lumps) but don;t be concerned it will be thinner and less noticeable,
according to clownroy (Conroy)

Too Late :
"From that underground network, government electricity company Aurora is
running fibre cables along its above-ground street power lines, to feed
the high speed broadband access into more than 200,000 homes by 2010."

http://www.themercury.com.au/article/2009/10/21/104885_tasmania-news.html

"Aurora Energy, which jointly owns the Tasmanian NBN Company (TNBN Co)
with the national NBN Company, will be responsible for building the
network, recently issued a request for tender in late July for around 1120
kilometres of overhead cable and just 40 kilometres of underground cable."

"This is the glimpse Communications Minister Stephen Conroy gave us of his
vision for the government's $43 billion high-speed national broadband
network when he finally unveiled the implementation study on the project
last week.

It involves 55 per cent of the 10 million premises to be cabled being
connected above ground, and 45 per cent through underground ducting.

Conroy is not in the least concerned that there will be resistance to this
from homeowners, who already stare at the tangled aerial cable
infrastructure that is the legacy of the Keating government's involvement
in the pay-television rollout war between Telstra and Optus.

In an attempt to comfort those residents in the 5.5 million premises to be
connected by above-ground fibre cables, Conroy said these would be thinner
and strung higher than existing pay-TV power pole cabling.

"Just more than a year ago Finance Minister Lindsay Tanner was
enthusiastically promoting the role mobile services were playing in
driving productivity across the economy.

Holding his mobile phone out to an audience at the National Press Club in
Canberra, he said people would look back in 50 years and "call this period
of human existence the era of the mobile phone".

"The internet and the mobile phone are becoming the same thing," he added.

But the social engineering in Conroy's vision for a brave new world would
encourage a more sedentary population dependent on services supplied
through the umbilical cord of his broadband cable, rather than following
the trend towards mobility of communication services.

Thats actually from some murdoch shit rag and its absolutely notorious
for its one eyed view and lies about anything the labor govt is about.

"This is the glimpse Communications Minister Stephen Conroy gave us of his vision for the government's $43 billion
high-speed national broadband network when he finally unveiled the implementation study on the project last week.

It involves 55 per cent of the 10 million premises to be cabled being

Irrelevant what he claims, the NBN wont survive the demise of the Labor
govt and when that happens will determine whats been done at that time.

Conroy is not in the least concerned that there will be resistance to this from homeowners, who already stare at the

You dont even know that there will be any resistance in that regard.

He's right.

"Just more than a year ago Finance Minister Lindsay Tanner was enthusiastically promoting the role mobile services

And even someone as stupid as you should have noticed that he's long gone.

Holding his mobile phone out to an audience at the National Press
Club in Canberra, he said people would look back in 50 years and
"call this period of human existence the era of the mobile phone".

He's right, and that has absolutely nothing to do with the NBN.

"The internet and the mobile phone are becoming the same thing," he added.

Cant even manage to get the wording right. No wonder he got the bums rush.

But the social engineering in Conroy's vision for a brave new world

More lies.
