Cowboys

Tony Watkins posts an amusing juxtaposition of quotes:
"Only the cowboys need to be afraid of the new Building Regulations."
Clayton Cosgrove, Minister for Building Issues, 24 April 2006
Really?
"An investigation has been launched after twenty one health and safety experts had to be rescued when their office collapsed during a meeting."
Royal Institute of British Architects Legal e-bulletin no.137, 1 March 2006

    Haha!!!... Goes to show who the real cowboys are!!! Just as an aside; did you hear the Vice-minister of transport confess on T.V.: "I don't know anything about cars", when questioned about the new “Parliamentary BMWs”… I can see why she’s got the job she has!

We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
