Response to "Anonymous"

Ron does not bother me at all, but thank you for your thoughtfulness.  His last post said something like, "Now we are going to play hardball", and my thought was, that is OK, but not in my court.  So I deleted all of his comments, and if he continues, I'll simply put him in SPAM.  One of these days I'll figure out how to respond to comments in the comment section!

Shirley,

I am sure you are happy to be a private citizen again. Life must be much simpler and sweeter. Folks who have not held an elected office do not understand the legal and fiduciary constraints that focuses a policy-maker's decisions to be within legal guidelines and process; and all the while protecting property owners interests. A very tough balancing act; so thank you for time served walking 'the line'.

Trying to balance County policy and process with community activist-ridden agendas had to be stimulating. There is no doubt that those fighting the current County Los Osos sewer project are the most vocal and contentious of activist groups. While they may hate the title of 'Los Osos Sewer Nuts', they have unintentionally earned that very title by their own uncivil behavior, muck-slinging and tabloid-ish marketing techniques. That they publicly chaff over the public's negative perception of their behavior just calls attention to their foolishness even more; and reinforces the public's distaste of them.

But I digress......
Thanks for your good work.
