  4. Re: While CVS is under contruction

    The huge traffic jams at that corner due to CVS construction are likely to continue when CVS opens. Helen Shane and others warned that such traffic would worsen if CVS located itself there. As soon...
  5. While CVS is under construction

    Have been out of the loop on this one. Completely. I thought the CVS project had been denied, and was horrified to see the sign on the fence saying "CVS" when I passed the demolition site. What a way...

    I am hoping those who are interested might take a moment to let me know their stand on something. I have a foot in both camps on the subject of farming, in that I do farm. I believe ag is very...

  8. Re: "More Drugs, More Money" letter in Sonoma West & Noreen Evans in Sebastopol?

    I don't know about demagoguery, sociology or any of that. I do know that I was blown away when I became a member of the Graton Fire Department and went out on just about every call for several years...

    On Grief

    Your life becomes strange,
    The ground beneath you becomes fragile,
    Your thoughts make your eyes unsure;
    And some dead echo drags your voice down...

  13. Re: Burning Man is coming

    I went to Burning Man in 2012 and 2013 and can offer some tips for "virgin" burners. First of all, I went alone, so had to fully embrace the notion of "radical self-reliance." The first year, I...

  16. Re: bears in Sebastopol ?

    I'm pretty sure, from your description, that what you saw was a Sasquatch. They usually migrate in the Fall from Mendo down through Sonoma and out to Pt. Reyes where they spend the winter.

  18. Re: Police with guns play with them with kids--Aug. 30, 2011 PD article

    I want to echo what Barrie says here. Andy was not a threat or dangerous. Sheriff's deputy Erick Gelhaus is a threat, dangerous, and a killer. The "crime" of this boy is that he is brown-skinned, so...
  19. Re: Police with guns play with them with kids--Aug. 30, 2011 PD article

    I recently received my property tax bill for the coming year. Why should I fork over $2,000 for Sonoma County to continue to shoot people who don't need to be shot? Maybe if enough of us organized...

    Yes we do need a mortitorium on vineyards now. We also need to force some of these vineyards that are already planted to be pulled and replanted with real food that we can actually use for our...
  21. Re: Level of Local Police Enforcement

    Not to get off on a tangent--but what was the issue with the cigar-smoker? If he/she was smoking in a nonsmoking area, they damn well deserved to be arrested. Taking away others' right to be...
  22. Re: Creek contamination by Paul Hobbs Winery

  24. Re: A bear near Sebastopol

    While black bears under certain circumstances can be potentially dangerous and should be respected, they are not as aggressive, as say, brown bears can be. And they certainly are much less aggressive...

  28. Re: Older chickens and young rooster need home

    I am sorry to hear of your difficult circumstances. I still can't understand why chickens, loved or unloved, are sent to slaughter as any kind of option.
  29. Re: Older chickens and young rooster need home

    How about the option of putting an ADA compliant crossing down the street rather than at the corner, like we have in front of Whole Foods. We could route a path clear of the tree to allow anyone to...

  49. Re: Some Pictures of Hobbs's Takeover of the Jenkel Property

    I want to say in response to the above that unless someone has read an actual clinical assessment of John Jenkel, that makes that diagnosis, I don't believe he is schizophrenic. He is exasperating,...
