Glad to see you get it Woody!
Sad that so many are totally ignorant of conditions in communist countries or that life everywhere must be just like here!
Oso, to help... I made a comment that since the U.S. may not want to build the railroad, Mexico MIGHT invite China to bid on it. The big international
story that week was there are millions of young males approaching adulthood with no female mates, as they were aborted or killed at birth to not
violate the communist one child law (male children are prefered in rural China). Just want people to be aware of what really may come of that male
over-population in a totalatarian dictatorship.
Woody got it. Crusoe doesn't know that there is no freedom to immigrate from a communist country. The Vietnamese in Garden Grove are there because the
communist won and those who helped the U.S. would have been butchared.
Railroads in Baja is more fun to talk about... so go ahead, nobody is stopping anyone from adding railroad comments here!

So, I guess you think Oso can't read? Just because people don't agree with you, doesn't mean they don't understand what you said do YOU get that?
It's been a few days since I've spewed hate, and had to get my fix.
P.S. - let's do a small test. Do you understand what pluperfect means?

Roberto, you just don't understand the concept of FREEDOM of speech or ideas, based on facts.
I don't care what anyone thinks... that's their freedom... get it?
Sharing ideas or information IS what this forum is about. Using it to do personal bad talk about me is not what it is for and is against the rules
here. IF you don't like it here, there are plenty of other sites where your concepts or beliefs will not be challenged... as there just isn't any
audiance for it.
Don't you have ANYTHING to contribute here that doesn't mention me in it? If there is a psychologist out there, I would be interested in reading what
Roberto's condition of 'DK bashing fascination' is!

Yet another nonsensical post from our hero - the King of Baja. I was talking about your repeating to Oso what you had already posted, sir. WTF does
freedom of speech have to do with anything. Now, tell me, you were head of your debating class, weren't you?
And, since you bring up psychologists, what do you think the diagnosis would be for you? My money is on narcissist.
Me, I'm just a hater who has nothing to contribute, both on this forum and in real life.

"Me, I'm just a hater who has nothing to contribute, both on this forum and in real life. "
Finally something factual!
Oso's post said that he didn't know why the railroad thread got talking about China... I responded.
You should avoid betting... It never occurs to you that some people just love to share what they have with others without needing any compensation? A
forum is for sharing and helping... It shouldn't be just for taking. How about a free 'got baja?' sticker?

Hi David ...... ""DUMB"is really' being "Dumber" than you could ever immagine David.Why havent you immigrated to Mexico?That seems to be your lifes
major intersest. Walk the walk, and stop talking about it and putting people down that you do not agree with. That was a very negative response,
towards me and I did not deserve that."Thanks for the put down, directly aimed at me...... but no thanks!!You are such a child!!!!!!!On this,
subject. Please tell us all ......how you know so much out the blue...........?? Just how did you get to this negative state in your own mind in your
current life,....and start attacking people, most people are looking for a positive expierience,who have a valid interest in saving small living
things in Baja? Its just as hard for a small bird to have a drink of water than.....if you cant have a full tank of gasoline...... Maybe
harder........ think about it and get educated and finally grow up a bit.!!!!!!When was the last time you could not have a full tank of gas? What did
you do????? And what did you do to produce that tank of gas?? Just what were you thinking about...... ?????? Donuts Maybe!!!!Just try being totaly
dead straight and honest......,And please tell us what you know about being a longeshoreman and humping bags of grain on your back for a miniumum
wage? Please be more considerate about somethings. Get in touch with some longshoremen. They were all bonified union members that made this country
what it is. They woudn't even think of driving a Toyota.

All I know is I miss the railroads that had tourist cars on them to go down Mexico. Used to catch a train out of Mexicali to the Rock and it was a
long way down but with an ice chest full of beer and a bag of tacos the ride was an easy stress reliever. It was funny the first time I went down to
the Rock and the train stops in the desert with some sand dunes. I thought where is the town and pow here comes taxis over the small dunes to pick us
up to take us back to town. The hotel/bar was setup to greet all of us and get the party going. Then you could also load you empty ice chest up on
the way back with the shrimp and man was it good from here. Trains are something Mexico needs to get back on line and not just in Copper Canyon.
David keep the faith and the great posts coming and Crusoe and Roberto stay calm and cool. This world has a lot of things to get mad or upset about
but I doubt this Reply Post would be on the top 1000. Friends to Friends let the good times in Baja roll. Later-------bajafun777

I don't attack people Crusoe, so please show me where I took a personal shot at you.
Here is the place where I was responding to your responce to me and it is based on the comment you made, (thinking the Chinese would or could leave
China to live in Garden Grove like those you said were already there): "Crusoe doesn't know that there is no freedom to immigrate from a communist
country. The Vietnamese in Garden Grove are there because the communist won and those who helped the U.S. would have been butchared."
If you are not open to learn new things, like the Asians in Garden Grove are Vietnamese not (mainland) Chinese... then that will result in flawed
thinking about many things that will be presented to you in life.
I post a lot here because it is fun to, and I like sharing information. Baja is a favorite vacation destination since I was a kid.
Most of the people here are friends or friendly and you will note that all is very smooth until one of the small group of people who don't think there
should be two sides to a story or another point of view expressed jumps in and gets all worked up...
If you believe in what you think then be happy with that... Post facts or logic if you would like to convince others to support your idea... That's
what I am doing and it doesn't take a way your side of the story if it is true. Have some faith... I am not trying to make enemies... I try and make
friends and connect people via this forum to help more people have more friends wo love Baja. Look at my Baja oriented parties and photo posts of Baja
people... Does that look like I am sombody who likes to fight or get people to hate??? HELLO!!??

This will probably stir people up but...
When I drove past Colonet last week I didn't see much redeeming about the place. As far as agriculture it looks like a disaster. Total dustbowl. Do
they have water? Is there any topsoil left.
I haven't had time to go over to he Point but so what if they build a megaport?
Okay, I'm against it only because it's too close to San Quintin where I have a fishcamp. Plus, I work in Long Beach and know just how filthy a
commercial port is. Long Beach has the worst air in SoCal and that's saying something. The cancer rate in that area has skyrocketed.
But what does Colonet really have going for it? Anything?

THANK YOU for the redirection. the area you mention has much water, if slightly salty water is your thing. brackish might describe it better, since it
is so close to the ocean the wells are not sweet.
as for the haters...grab a beer.......
there are always gonna be detractors. use the U2U function. jeez, i get em more than you'd imagine and we seem to be able to get it all hashed out
without the bulging forehead vein.

Okay, that's the same as San Quintin as a result of overpumping the ground water. I have the same doubts about San Quintin as an agriculture area.
There is sweet wate availible but it must be pumped closer to the mountains.
But Colonet doesn't look anywhere near as sucessful as San Quintin for agriculture.
My other reluctance for the megaport is traffic. Ya, they say they will build a rail line but I think alot of trucks will still be headed back to the
border area. I'm sure there is plenty of rail lines in San Diego. |
