It's Biblical

Way back in 2015, I mentioned the issue of CSC moving a/the major data centre to Australia from its US site. Did I mention that Australia is the driest inhabited continent? While some searching has not revealed that houses must be built with grey water and rain catchment, Western Australia particularly encourages such in homes. The incentive is economic: markedly lower water bills and the ability to sustain living conditions. Widely encouraged everywhere.

So, now the Flood. It is biblical. I guess God doesn't want white folks to despoil the native habitat.

"The trees are full of snakes," he said. "If you take the boat out over the paddock they swim towards it trying to get on something dry, same with the spiders."
