I too like many am upset that PG&E is fighting so hard against the Marin Energy Authority and I believe we do have some right to complain about how PG&E spends 'shareholder" money when PG&E has a government backed monopoly on power distribution. I don't want to pay more in PG&E rates but am willing to be a guinea pig and think that project like the MCE push PG&E to increase their own efforts in developing renewable energy. I applaud PG&E for those efforts and wish they would focus their time and money on those positive efforts and not on trying to destroy Marin's efforts.

]]> Comment on Privatization of Novato Waste Water on June Ballot by jimk http://marinmaven.webjaw.com/2010/03/02/privatatization-of-novato-waste-water-on-june-ballot/comment-page-1/#comment-1793 jimk Tue, 16 Mar 2010 13:05:26 +0000 http://marinmaven.webjaw.com/?p=632#comment-1793 Good job. Novato. If veolia takes over your water, 15% of the 7.2 million dollar price tag goes right to france in the way of profit. Then, veolia will cut the workforce by up to 2/3 creating a short staffed treatment plant, like Richmond's. The short staffed treatment plant will be ripe for spills and violations and veolia will just raise your rates to cover the fines, no problem. Dont let a crappy company like veolia take over your water. Kick em to the curb, Novato.Enter text right here! Good job. Novato.

I live nearby but had never known about this beautiful trail til I read it on your blog. We took a hike up there today and it was just gorgeous! bubbling water, iridescent green leaves, wide paths and friendly people & dogs. We'll be visiting regularly.

We ate snacks and stayed in bed to stay warm. We had been heating up pot roast from the night before in the oven. when the power went out. We kept the oven closed and it was done after the lights came on so we ate it very late in the day! We wore our maglite headlamps, read magazines & listened to the battery powered radio.
