So what is timesnewroman? It's not the font, rather my take on the age we live in. The USA is the new Rome and the times we live in are timesnewroman.

Briefed we were, but not about our place in the big picture. It looks like they are still drawing the big picture and we will be phase 2 of it. Its not exactly comforting and we are no clearer about our future roles now than we were before the briefing.
Yet another group of workers facing re-organisation are the firefighters. It seems that at every stage of their recent industrial dispute that they bent over backwards to be accomodating and yet were simply abused by the government. Now even the reduced pay deal that they fought for and accepted is to be reneged upon by the paymasters. Sue them, I say, for loss of earnings.
