This blog is no longer associated with KASM and while the url may still contain the word KASM it is not a KASM outlet.
I have decided against deleting the blog because it would not release the KASM acronym in the public domain as there is a KASM radio station in the US which has tried to monopolise all web extensions and many people have learned were to find it and might be interested in the dissemination of information about mining, fracking and drilling both internationally and in NZ as the asset sale John Key's National government program will be forced upon the NZ population
Here are three websites you might want to check out if you need to get in touch with KASM:
