- @bipolarvoice [4] they can cope. I don't reject the medical community. I just respect the approach of "find what works for you". in reply to bipolarvoice [5] # [20]

- RT @glennwheeler [23]: good to see Wayne Swan displays the same arrogance in person as he does as treasurer as he departed Adelaide this morning. # [24]
