hi Zachary, i'm sorry you even Had to respond to this thread. i'm sorry you had to read some of the self-serving overreach of a few. a whole lot of gossip, very little substance. Why it couldn't...

My last post was getting too long, so I decided not to respond to Tommy's claim below that I "don't research the quantity of water underground." Then I read the following letter in today's Press...

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...

I completely disagree, if you accept Shepherd's criteria for a 'rant'. Much good writing, and most good oratory, is emotionally driven. Not solely so, but it better be a strong component. The deeper...

Hi Tommy,
I appreciate that you evoked Jesus. As you may be aware, I am an ordained United Methodist minister who used to spend many hours reading and studying the Bible. Jesus may have drunk wine,...

I don't actually recall any references to him drinking it.

but he was definitely a winemaker, though one sadly lacking in craftsmanship and willing to take egregious shortcuts.

Really! ugh....
there is less clarity today than ever..
Assimilating facts? That's a slippery slope!
how presumptuous that any of us need to know a damn thing..

To me this is a much needed conversation and awakening of the need to be proactive regarding the wine industry taking over this beautiful area and yes indeed while many enjoy smoking and drinking the...

What's "extreme" is the wine industry's take-over of food farming ag. land in this county. 96% of the fruits and veggies sold in Sonoma County are imported, according to GoLocal. It took an extremely...

I believe what this community needs at this time is compassion and love. Additionally, we could use stronger networks of support for families that have members with serious mental illnesses in it....

Claire, thank you... I have continued to be appalled by the tenet of this conversation by folks I would otherwise have thought to be informed, compassionate and progressive. Gossip, hearsay, and...

Agreed--up to a point. I hope no one here takes this to simplistic extremes by instantly discrediting some writing because it contains one of those phrases. Most or all such phrases could conceivably...

Hi Chris,...

seems simpler just to buy his vote the normal way.

boy, I would never have guessed that this topic would draw the bandwidth it has!!

Thanks so much for posting this video of what looks like a young cinnamon phase black bear. You made our family's day! We have been informally studying black bears daily, all through winter and...

Malene, thanks so much for sending that to Jill! I hope more people take your lead. (Regarding your last sentence however, Houston is not bad. He is sick.)

I don't think sexism quite nails it, which is to say I think it has more to do with society's negative attitudes towards women than towards men. Misogyny includes patronizing and paternalistic...

Hi Claire,

The current petition on Avaaz (We will not comply) is a bit confusing to me.
A few weeks ago I read a petition that Monsanto , Syngenta and others had tried once again to hold the...

Whoa!!

As Beavis would have said: "Calm down, Nancy!"

I, too, have roots that go back 100-plus years in Sonoma County, so I agree with you that people shouldn't be playing that game.

I know...

WOW!!!!!

I said, "You go, EcoGirl," and you did!!

Thank you for writing and posting one of the finest posts that I have ever read on this forum.

I note that in your article, you said that...

A personal note from Patricia Dines, Editor of The Next STEP

Hi all - First I want to say how moved I am by nearly all the comments here, not only for the support, but also because I feel that...

I have been reading all of the posts under this thread and was going to stay out of this fracus, but upon sober reflection, I now feel compelled to add my opinion to the fray.

As almost everyone...

I have lived in this community for many years - and this is the FIRST time I have said a peep on WACCO. This issue is serious Barlow! Do not do a farmers market on Sunday - do something on another...

A mysterious malady seems to have expanded drastically in the past year, wiping out as many as half of the beehives needed to pollinate much of America’s produce.

Sad, but I can't say I'm real surprised. For quite a long time it's seemed to me that everything Hain touches turns to sh*t. How the company that gave health food a bad name ever got in a position to...

The bodhisattvas have a similar plan,
