Here is LOTA’s official response:

Richard LeGros posted a comment about what LOTA supposedly settled for.

At 9:12 PM PST on Monday, October 27th, CSD Director Joe Sparks launched what appeared to be a mass e-mail sent to numerous undisclosed recipients, which consisted of his response to CSD Board President Chuck Cesena’s viewpoint in The Tribune.

In the lengthy e-mail, Sparks attempted to address Cesena point-by-point, highlighting what he called “facts” in red-colored . . . → Read More: Joe’s "Sparks of Insanity"?

The problem is that I’ve never seen a debate before that did not allow the audience to ask questions about particular subjects. I can understand the argument, “Why should we talk about the Los Osos wastewater project? It’s in . . . → Read More: Response to Ann Garfinkel

Here is the e-mail I sent to the League of Women Voters in San Luis Obispo:
Dear Directors of The League of Women Voters of San Luis Obispo:

I am writing you on behalf of several concerned residents of Los Osos regarding an incident that occurred at the October 13 Candidates Forum in Los Osos sponsored by the . . . → Read More: Letter to League of Women Voters

Here is my speech in its entirety. The speech was truncated when spoken so here’s the extended cut:
I received a mailer by Maria Kelly and Marshall Ochylski this afternoon, which had the words, “Experienced leadership with proven results” in big, bold letters. That doesn’t make a lot of sense.
