Fracking Activist Will Host King Event on Friday Evening
By Dr. Suzanne De Benedittis. Did you know that the oil drilling company formerly known as PXP has done over 150 frack jobs using a variety of differently named processes in the nearby Inglewood Oil Field? Are you concerned about the escalating magnitude and intensity of the earthquakes we are experiencing? Wonder if these are fracking related? You or neighbors complain of heavy noxious odors in the early hours when there is a marine layer? Concerned? Want answers?

‘Another Reason to Vote No on Measure CC’
By Michael Milligan. From his March 17 response to George Laase, Mr. Paul Ehrlich wants you to remember one number: 25 cents a day. Mr. Ehrlich italicized it to make sure you don't forget it. I would like for everyone to remember another number: $10,950.
Clarke – Rhymes with Voting for a Man for Our Times
By Dr. Janet Hoult. Thanks for publishing the poem last Friday morning for Mayor Jeff Cooper’s re-election. Since I also will be voting for Jim Clarke next week, he should have a letter and a poem as well.
