    wow 100k paycut for cowen?
    edit: ah thought he said 30%

    Sure it was announced last week. Regardless of what people think of him, a 20% cut followed by a 30% cut a few days later would be a tad harsh. :D

    Not really, if you can take you own water from somewhere you can have it for free. ou only have to pay for what the state gives you.


    Just so you know, the water in the rivers isnt the cleanest and the sea is a bit salty. Dont say you werent warned.:)

    At up to 15%?

    Most definitely more strikes.

    I reckon the guards will do it. Anarchy for everyone! Merry Christmas...
