To fight this, the public sector unions will spend as much of our money as it takes to preserve…Read More their right to keep extracting money from us to cover their perks.

I don't really see this as a big problem for unions. Most members know the value of their union's…Read More activities and representation. A few may refuse to pay but most know that they enjoy high wages and incredibly good benefits only because of the union's political activities. Why would they not want those activities to continue? I see no need to force the few folks who don't want to pay up to do so.

Apparently some that post in here have no idea what a union does. Yes opt in is a default. So what?…Read More As a union investagates all concerns on a ballot that will effect them, and makes susgestions(for the betterment of the union) meaning to the benifit of there members. A majority of members know this and its not a problem. What is a problem is crack pot articles like this. Apparently this article wants a 25,000 member union to have 24,400 members to have to opt in to something they already agree with hoping a lot will not because its another pain in the a@@ in there daily things to do. On the other hand if 600 members feel so strong againt it, then they can opt out.

Unfortunately I was unable to make it to the meeting, but congratulations to Mr Flynn. I think the…Read More board probably made the right decision.
As for the SBEF, other members have left before and Scott Curtner joined a few weeks ago. I think there's enough enthusiasm and capability remaining to keep it going. It would be unfortunate if it relied on only one person.

Terms of service "encourage" people to use their real name, but if people were required to…Read More use their real name (and how would Patch enforce that?), traffic on this site would drop so precipitously...

I would hope in the future that people would use their real name insted of hiding behind a…Read More fictitious one. The Patch should look into this issue.What is left to be seen is what will happens to the San Bruno Education Foundation. Is this the beginning of the end?

The reason hurricanes never hit the west coast is, as I understand, primarily due to water…Read More temperature. The waters off California are too cool to sustain a hurricane. That is generally why they dissipate heading north from Mexico or from the eastern Pacific. We get the clouds, sometimes rain or thunderstorms or rough seas. So right now the chances of a hurricane hitting California are pretty low.
