Dear Uncle frank: Hey, that was funny!!! These ecolo types can drive you nuts. Locally we started a nice public park a couple years ago, in clearing the land A LITTLE they found some tortoises. A grand total of 125 and it cost $125,000 to move them, build their little burrows for them and make them COMFY. haha. I am serious, this really happened. JDN

Frank, >I think the environmentalists have already lost the battle, Tony. The mayor and city council have already lined up for the project. As far as Coyote Valley is concerned, it's just an ugly strip of dry grass next to highway 101. Putting industry there will reduce the risk of fires.
The tree huggers would have to come up with an endangered species to stop the project, and I don't think anything lives there.



OK, sounds like the local news is doing its typical thing siding with the environmentalists. I love nature too, but we should be pleased that the industry we have here, like Cisco, is mostly relatively clean. No smokestacks, slaughter-houses, lumbering, etc. Just put a lot of that EMI out into the air. Good for you. <g>
