Loreto Bay CEO on Baja Talk Radio
Hey Nomads,
Finally! We have a show about the Loreto Bay Development tomorrow (Tuesday, April 11th). Our guest will be CEO and President Jim Grogan and we'll
discuss the status of the project today and the future of Loreto.
We welcome all email (new email is bajatalkradio@yahoo.com) and telephone (new toll free number is 866-613-1612) questions.... be somewhat kind if you
are against the project as it took alot to get him to be a guest.
Once again the show homepage is
http://www.worldtalkradio.com/show.asp?sid=126
Hope you will listen and it looks like we will finally have consistent shows as the management has finally settled everything with the new studio
equipment and personel.
Glad to be back,
Ted

Why was that, exactly? I would think he would want all the publicity he could get.
I would.

Do you have a windows media player in your computer? I clicked on the site, and when it came up I clicked on the "listen to the archives" box. This
brought out my media player. I looked at the schedule (clicked that box at top of page) and tried to listen to the show in progress, and couldn't
recieve it, although I did receive archives. The listener support box, also at the top, talks about what you need to listen, and says that you need
less of it to listen to archives. I'm assuming we'll get the show somehow today at 4pm in Loreto, or at least the archives after. Hope this helps-
I'm not much of a computer expert.

the coffee cup was really cool!

Paula and Judy...I have no idea how I got the program so easily. I just buy the machine, turn it on, and it works it's magic.
I have XP Windows Pro if that means anything. There was a little box that I clicked and some genie up/down-whatever-loaded the whole mess onto my
computer.
At this moment I am listening to a religious/philosophy program...which I guess means I am on the road to the right program with Ted...and also
salvation, which will surprise my wife I am sure.
So you like that cup of coffee, eh? Thought you would...got to warn you though, you can float a wrench on this coffee....you better have some cream?
sugar?
I do what the voices in my tackle box tell me.

Oh everything seems to work fine in explorer. I have a pop up blocker on Netscape which may be blocking the media player from.....you guessed
it...popping up.
Now all I have to do is remember to listen. Now that I have the correct day
Pomp, This computer stuff is PFM, isnt it.

Did your friend use real paint or did he use Corel Painter/Photoshop? Either way its very nice. Does he sell copies? If so, he might make some money
from some nomads on here.

Well, that was interesting
Part of my 2nd question was partly answered. Here is what I asked:
| Quote: |
Hello Mr. Grogan my name is Corky . I own a home in Baja Sur. I have been an opponent to shoreside developments in sensitve and threatened areas for
many years. Inasmuch I am extremely fond of Loreto, the "Bay" and its' citizens.
I am not however opposed to ALL nearsshore projects , mainly those that compromise the local ecosystem and environment.
My question(s) is one that is repeatedly asked rergarding the Villages of Loreto Bay.
It seems there is much concern over the future availability of necessary services in and around Loreto.
Many believe that Loreto will fall way short of these utilities in the near future without huge investments and infrastructure given the current rate
of growth.
-------------------------
Can you tell us what concrete plans you have for upgrading or supplementing the energy and water needs of the town in the near and distant future?
Also, are you prepared to help augment the existing utilities in order to fulfill your promises and commitments to your clients and people of Loreto
if it becomes necessary sooner than expected?
-----------------------
My last question addresses the "Bay" itself.
Will the quality of the "Bay" remain untouched by the (your) current developments in regards to sewage treatment and effluent outfall?
Thank you for your time and concern.

I guess he tried to cover the 1st question in his opening dialog. I don't know about you but I find the responses about the waste and energy issues
basically unresolved

I found the responses to be canned sales talk. And the promises sound something like the promises made by local politicians around election time.
Baja Judy summed it up very well. and all this doesn't surprize me at all, except the question that backninedan asked about the stucco. Maybe some
of those workers should have called in. And create more water than they use? gimme a break! they're going to replant over the aquifers so that they
can become recharged over many years time.....try tens of millions of years!

Sharksbaja,
Your questions not only went unanswered, they went unasked by the interviewer. All questions-- the few that were used-- seemed to be excerpted, and
what may have been substantial questions were substantially reduced.
This was not an interview, it was an infomercial.
