Brisbane Rising River

Brisbane this morning, as the biggest flood in 100 years overflows the Myall Creek. Suncorp Stadium is under water.

Toxic mine water is rising under Jozi at 30cm. per day - currently its 500M below the surface. 2012 is  'D Day, but apparently theres a buffer zone at 150 M below that is inpenetrable. Thats in the Press Release. Either way, its a toxic soup that is lurking below. Time is running out for the master plan to be unveiled. I think we've got a problem, Trevor Manuel say its absurd to imagine us in gumboots in the streets of Jo Burg.

Lets have a look in 2012 and see who's right...
