What on earth is unpatriotic about not wanting to be subjected to extreme noise? I was once in a hospital (already the noisiest place on earth) when those guys flew over, I just had to laugh it was so absurd. But this is a place where people live. It's one thing not to live near an airport, but SF is a city, not an airport. I support your efforts! By the way, here's a number where you can complain: 650-599-5057. It’s a voicemail box. I hear there's someplace online too, but I can't find it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11380345.post-1140383382348703622006-02-19T13:09:00.000-08:002006-02-19T13:09:00.000-08:00What a bunch of communist cowards you are.

Whether or not people receive some sort of adrenalin rush from watching these fighter jets, their presence needs to be understood in contextual terms. Those are multi-million dollar war machines built to kill people, in fact <I>many</I> people at once and they should not be displayed as anything but. If individuals want to see an air show, go watch one - the entire City should not have to participate.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11380345.post-1132554421091162062005-11-20T22:27:00.000-08:002005-11-20T22:27:00.000-08:00Michael,I'm delighted to see that you're rallying ...Michael,<BR/><BR/>I'm delighted to see that you're rallying opposition to the Blue Angels - and that you're not alone.

After that, she thought they were wonderful.

They are scanned briefly by the interns and then plunked into a database denoted by issue. When the emails in various categories begin to add up, the issue gets some attention and, if it adds up enough, is dealt with by the supervisor. This happens once in a very blue moon. <BR/><BR/>The contents of the letters themselves are ignored. You might as well have just written something like:<BR/><BR/>"Please make the Blue Angels go away. They are noisy and obnoxious."<BR/><BR/>And then just write yourname and address so they know that you are in their district.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11380345.post-1131618091298696342005-11-10T02:21:00.000-08:002005-11-10T02:21:00.000-08:00One of the things I like about this blog are all t...One of the things I like about this blog are all the pictures of the random people. Sometimes they smile, sometimes they don't pay attention, and sometimes they have a blank look as though they are deers caught in the headlights. It is kind of hilarious, really -- having a random stranger come up to you out of the blue to take your picture.
