At least cable cars are quiet. Perhaps now that NATO is running out of things to blow up in Libya they could start on a no-fly-zone at Cradle

The cable car development is one proposed project that can do exactly that. We need a lot more similar developments done in a careful manner, and it MUST happen....otherwise we will have to go back to logging.

There must be other ways for Tasmania to survive, apart from just logging and tourism. Not that I have any idea about such things myself, but surely there must be some other types of business we could participate in?
