Dear Ms.:
Thank you for taking your time to write to such a hideous person such as the keeper of the blog space.
First of all the blog clearly states it contains DOCUMENTS and OPINION . Opinions are backed up with reasoning and evidence provided not by a single individual but by a pool of writers and concerned citizens, including the Sun and Press and other local News Papers.
If you find a particular OPINION or FACT to be in error you are welcome to write an opinion on that particular issue. However, blanket statements such as yours do not contribute to the intelligent discussion of issues within the city.
You are right, spell check is needed in some of the early posts. However, some times things names in particular are spelled wrong with intent. You get to figure out what the intent may be.
Occasionally the repetitive nature of the blog is a result of the compilation of emails where the blog is flooded with reader provided input.
I will post your observation if you request it be done.
Do inform the readers of what Issues in Particular you find a different point of view.
Gramps..

Dear Grandpa,
I happened by chance to run across your blog and was shocked!
I consider myself a fairly informed citizen of Grand Terrace. I read the newspapers daily and I occasionally attend the City Council Meetings. I have been a resident for 30 years and my children have both gone to school in Grand Terrace. I'm not one to spend time writing someone, especially of your caliber, but I thought it needed to be said that you are extremely ignorant.
Almost all of your writings are of opinion not fact.
You say harsh blanketed statements that often don't make sense.
Why do you even waste your days writing this in factual blog?
Thank goodness for the freedom of speech act so people like you, who clearly no nothing about what they write, are able to waste space on the Internet.
The worst part is you coward behind an alias. There is nothing respectable about that. So how about it Grandpa- come out with your real identity. At least then I could respect you somewhat. Anyway, people like you are garbage who pollute the minds of unknown individuals.
Grand Terrace is a fine town and was under the leadership of Schwab and until recently, Berry as well. Granted, there have been a lot of things going on that are a bit seedy but your statements are just out of this world and make very little sense.
Leave Grand Terrace alone.
P.S. Your spelling is rather incorrect throughout your blog. Consider spell check!
