What a childish bit of melodrama, Yanker. Just like a liberal to spout off on some impassioned spiel to save the earth. You and Baja Fescue should go buy some rings and schedule the ceremony.

Keep yanking it as you do Yanker. How often do you Yankee? It appears too often as your writings suggest a softening of the brain.


"Keep yanking it as you do Yanker. How often do you Yankee"?

Hey hey hey! Why you asking me sexual questions here? You interested in the male "thang" :lol::lol::lol: You should be the last to say I should get a ring and schedule the ceremony!!!!! Oh....kisses to you sweetheart :lol::lol::lol: Now...go get educated on flaming, so you can stop embarrassing yourself!

Regardless of the merits (or lack of) the "positions" (I'm being charitable here) presented, does anyone else besides me get endless amusement by those who preach ideas from on high, try to ridicule others, but don't have the first clue on how to spell what they are saying (Bruce, this is not directed at you)? :lol::lol::lol::lol:

It just makes me wonder whether those same people even understand what they are saying.

Believe it or not, most people can easily read the following without stopping to think about the spelling:

I cdnuolt blveiee taht I cluod aulaclty uesdnatnrd waht I was rdgnieg. The phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid. Aoccdrnig to rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, the olny iprmoatnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be in the rghit pclae. The rset can be a taotl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit a porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe.

Amzanig huh?

I believe that it has been proven (here and at other venues) that the amount that a person says is inversely proportional to the amount that a person thinks.

OK amigos... this is on the General Baja board... not the personal insult forum (is there one here on Nomad?)...:!:

Mr. Rescue just posted his opinion about some sand dunes and what may happen to them... Nothing he does is likely going to change what the Mexican property owner is going to do, so don't be threatened... But, why not let the guy speak his mind... without the insults...?:saint:

Both directions from Nuevo Mazatlan was sand hills along the beach... when I was young... now it is all houses... :fire: Oh well, that is progress and the Mexican land owners now have rental income and more... I don't like seeing rows upon rows of (mostly empty) beach houses, but it isn't my land!:no:

It is best to just enjoy what you can, and not let what is beyond your control ruin your time.:yes:

OK, I'm done... go back to what you were doing!:lol:

Hey, eetdrt88, you're right. Hard to distinguish when someone is "just joshing". Maybe Doug can add a feature to the board that provides webcams!!!! That way we can see when someone has "their tongue in the cheek". Some others would only be a set of cheeks.:moon:

eetdrt88, are you offering Nomad discounts?

and now...back to the original topic.

If you've ever been to Todos Santos and experienced the magic of the place, or if you're simply concerned about protecting Baja from greedy developers, the Todos Santos Sand Dunes are now under attack.

A developer wants to build over 55 homes directly on the Todos Santos dunes. These dunes are a fragile ocean/beach environment that will most likely be destroyed if this out-of-town developer is not stopped from executing his plans.

If you can help in any way, please do. We don't have much time to go before SEMARNAP, The Mexican EPA, and put a stop to this. We need volunteers to help with legal fees, circulating petitions, meetings, and getting the word out to others who can help...

If you care at all about what development is doing to destroy the natural wonders of Baja, please visit http://www.bajarescue.com/dunes/ for more info.

OR FOR MORE INFORMATION, CALL SERGIO JUAREQUI AT (011-52) 612 14 50780
OR ELENA MORENO AT (011-52) 612 14 50050.

I'm not the treasurer. If anyone is interested in getting involved in any way, call Sergio or Elena at the numbers listed, or send an email to savethedunes (at) bajarescue.com.

Apparently, SEMARNAP has been getting a LOT of input on this issue and may have put a temporary hold on allowing any permits for now...

The recent earthquakes and the two Tsunami warnings in California may have had a little to do with it.
