Right on Goletaman. You and I must be related.

I appreciate BeachFan's obvious passion for Goleta Beach which I share. However his command of the facts and the science is sorely lacking and he provides no science or substance to support his claims.
1. Surfrider and EDC want the park and the beach protected but the emphasis is on the beach.
2. The reason the Coastal Commision rejected the county's plan is because the enormously expensive Moffat and Nichols scheme was so obviously flawed and unworkable.
3. The science of beach erosion is well known and the California Coastal act prohibits seawalls and other beach "armoring" with good reason: they tend to result in the loss of sand and thus of the beach.
4.Thanks to Supervisor Carbajal, Wolf and Farr we now have the opportunity to see the skill and talent of the Parks Department working WITH not AGAINST the environmental community to come up with a cost effective and sustainable plan to save the beach AND the park .
5. All this yelling "Drop the rocks! Drop the rocks! reminds me of Palin and co. yelling "Drill baby drill". It may make a good sound bite and make the yellers and shouters feel powerful but it is lousy science, it won't work and the Coastal Commission won't it allow it so let's all try to work together and move on.
6."She ( Sup. Wolf) receives huge monetary and other support from EDC.." Can you provide a single fact to support that statement, especially the huge monetary part.

Well done Eartjhustice to be sure. However, let's give plenty of credit to our own local Los Padres Forest Watch and Jeff Kuyper. They work on a shoestring of a budget and have been doing great things.

Not to be disrespectful but what precisely is wrong with suicide. Should we all not have the right to decide when life is no longer better than death. I would not chose death by jumping off a bridge but to each their own. It certainly seems a heck of a lot better than a slow lingering death from cancer or years of living in a state of depression, sadness and misery.

No good can come from any meeting held at the BigCaca. It is and will always be a thorn in the side of Goleta and bad karma hangs over it like a perpetual fog. This sounds like a meeting of rich and greedy insurance executives trying to figure out how best to screw the American people.

It would appear that Mr. Francisco has his mind already made up so please do not confuse him with the facts.
I would also ask Mr. Heller to clarify GOO's position on the PXP brouhaha. It is my understanding along with EDC and CPA, GOO was one of the original supporters of that deal. If it were to come back before the State Lands Commission today would GOO still support the deal?

Way overpriced and boring. Nice puff piece though.

He was a lucky man to have had a daughter like you.

I suspect that the only issues of substance where we need to know the positions of these candidates is how aggressively they intend to prosecute minor marijuana possession laws and panhandling. Neither of them is likely to claim to be soft on murder, rape, robbery or drunk driving, nor should they. I suspect they'll be quite firm on the latter and bob and weave on the former.

Sad tale of wasted police resources. Puritans in power harassing ordinary citizens doing normal things.
