Obstroporous??????
I am glad it is out of town. Americans and Cannucks that want to live with each other deserve what they get. But, I get lost when people start using
big words that I can't understand. Obstroporous is just too much for my simple mind to comprehend. :moon:

Your obnoxious, mean spirited words
Anon. You sound like a very mean spirited, unfriendly, opinionated, EnviroN-zi (as Skeet would describe you) person. I challenge you to read
absolutely every item that loretobay has to offer on their website. And I don't just mean what you have "gleaned" for your own benefit for rebuttel.
I personally read it all!!! And I mean down to the sites that describe the title insurance company and their representative Stewart Title Co. Plus,
the info on the board of directors, and the officers, and the companies objectives. I did all that before I expressed an opinion on this matter.
Stephanie. Have you done the same, before giving your opinion???? To do so would impress everyone more if you'd "own up to it or not"!!! I value
your opinions, just be sure you've done your homework before jumping into something that "could be beneficial for the area". And as far as "pimping"
the "project". Capt. Mike was never "pimping it, in my estimation. I would think that it is "expressing interest in something that may or maynot
happen down here. How do you consider him "pimping" it? I'd say if he was a saleman, partner, or profiting from this I might agree with you. But He
isn't!!!! "You can live your life for yourself, but you can't expect others to live their lives for you"!!! Looks to me like alot of people expect
alot, from other people, to me.

I agree with you that commercial postings should be seperated.
Good not to mince words, but know thy subject deary.

Well, actually I can, Nosy....and if you'd paid a bit of attention to my post, you would realize that I was agreeing with you about Fred's board!
Just not about your criticism of this one. Get a name and get a life, Dreary. - Stephanie Jackter

The post was nothing more than an advertisement, Phil!
Whether he wrote it or not, he posted it under his name. It's a sales pitch and it belongs on a seperate page. Punto. - Stephanie

This whole page
is turning into constant argue. There was nothing wrong on this thread except people looking for something to pick on. Keep it up folks and nomads
will fade into obscurity. A few of us need to stop looking for the bad stuff where you can find a chunky in the armor and attack. Capt Mike cut and
pasted a piece of information that had been raised hundreds of times amongst those of us that care about Baja California. There is no marketing in
any of the posts on this thread. What does exist here though, is a distinct ability to either read a post with little attention so we can make a
witty rapid reply, or to lack comprehension of the subject in the first place. We all need to learn a little tolerance and yes that includes me.
But it does occur to me, recur, actually, something I read and thought about for many years and incidents regarding the Anglo mind set of ?go for the
jugular.? Perhaps it?s in our genes (Jeans?). Anglos apparently are what some of us might consider ?overly-aggressive? from a global sociological
viewpoint. COMMENTS? Perhaps we can learn based on the open aggressions we encounter during written debate? In my mind, if I were educated in the
proper discipline I would treasure the emerging social behavior enabled by the Internet as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! As I have read nightly
the recently posted scientific information and expeditions regarding Baja California, Mexico as history and with relish, I wonder if the
evolution-of-the-moment isn?t happening more in our own backyards. In several hundred years we?ll all be reading about ourselves. What a rip (RIP?).
Since we all seem to have so much time, perhaps each of us could go back and review this entire thread and see where things might improve. Now that?s
our assignment for tonight. The test will be administered tomorrow.
Except that tomorrow is actually today I see by the clock at the bottom right of my screen. Thanksgiving ought to be a little more gracious (gracias)
than my getting all riled up over a simple post. A respectful good night and sincere Happy Thanksgiving, the thought of which was started by just
jerry.

misquote
Skeet. I apologize for that one. I'm sorry. Guess I've been reading too many threads, bobbins, needles, etc. When that happens, "baja brain" sets in.
Looks like I need to "push away" from the computer more often and "smell the air" instead.

Now you're picking on me? What did I do? 
I saw nothing wrong with Capt. Mike's post...it was just a simple.."Hey..look what I found about this project everyone's been talking about".
People need to pay attention a little more before flying off. There were a lot of misquotes... like the poster that thought Mike wrote the piece and
another misquoting Stephanie.
And when did marketing become synonymous with pimping? And what's up with the poster harping on what goes on at Fred's board? Sheeesh!
Oh well, Happy Thanksgiving

You Anonymous Person back there a ways:
Who the heck is Margaret Leck? That quote I used was taken directly from Capt. Mike's gushy gloat over Loreto land sales, which led off this thread.
Check it out.
This isn't really anything I give a rats sass about, either way--but don't you think it's just a tad deceptive for Capt. Mike to use a "we" in his New
Topic entry, and then tell us later that he's not involved?
You can't have it both ways, Capt. Mike!

Well if you folks feel that way I guess my signature is Advertisment.
Capt. Mike i am alittle concerned about you "We" also. It was my impression that you would not go any where close to Loreto. Cahnge your mind?
Come on you folks lets all set back and wait for the First House with running water, then we will all be justified one way or tother!!
Happy Turkey Day.

Margaret Leck is the author of the entrie post starting with the Dear Friends of Loreto Bay....down to her signature at the bottom. Capt Mike did not
write one word of that post except for the title. He was merely passing on her letter.
His only mistake was not identifiying her as the author in the beginning in bold print so people don't go off half-c-cked thinking
that he's "pimping.."
I read the whole thing before I made any judgment and it was clear to me that he was not the author.
Now...does that clear anything up?
Happy Thanksgiving

Thanks, jeans. I also read the whole thing without making a judgment, but unlike you was not aware that it didn't sound like anything Capt. Mike would
write. The only mistake he made was in not attributing the piece to the author? That's one tremendous mistake.

water for a "town" this size?

my mistake!!! big time!! mea culpas......lo siento.
sorry baja gang, i don't insert others' prose and articles very often - most of my friends here know i'm not much a loss for my own words - but this
time i failed to preface that the words were not mine = just passing on another's writing. Sorry....
I'll tell ya, if something comes along that i'm involved with i won't be shy about talking about it. And if its commercial in nature, i'll do the
pimping on the appropriate venue! 3rd party press releases not-withstanding!!
Now... anybody want to talk about los Ventanas at BOLA??? Big doins coming. Airstrip leased now by the the same atty involved with the Rosario
project. I can hear it now, "they're (developers) ruining the bahia!!"
P.S. - Skeet - i still go (fly) to loreto as long as someone else eats their ridiculous fees!!

Well I appreciate Capt. Mike posting that information because I like to know what is going on. And for the record I never saw anything he has written
regarding his plane flights that I would describe as commercial. I would like to think that whether or not you want to see more or less development in
Baja, this is a free forum for a free exchange of ideas and rudeness is not appropriate or appreciated by most of us.

for zoning variances to build their development for the best available profit.
You, Mr. Anonymous have absolutely zero right as does anyone else to to tell them what to do with their land if they are following the laws and
guidelines.
As for Capt Mike being "too commercial"; this simply lights up the sign on your forhead that says "I am a biased nut".
Honestly, Capt Mike has more time flying for the Flying Sam's than anyone I know and if that isn't a public serice then I do not know what is.
