 COMMENT 106002 helpful negative off topic

What is the point of these "tourist attraction" articles? Last week it was one of our local beaches . . . do you suppose tourists read Edhat for SB info? Or are you simply trying to appear that way to attract advertising banners?

Either way the information is redundant for locals and we sure don't need more tourists at our local spots! That's what Stearns Wharf and the Mission are for.

106009: Can you share with us what benefit this article had for you?

And since you obviously missed it, the point is that they are NOT to be exploited as tourist sites. Beyond the well-documented traffic and fires safety hazards caused by bussing in hundreds of tourists to our narrow canyon, the point is that Santa Barbara should be for her residents to enjoy, first and foremost, rather than the slavish postration before the almighty tourist dollar that now rules our town -- with the self-interested aiding and abetting of Edhat.

106219P - Photos #3 and #5 in particular, but all of these photos, in general, are not at all representative of what the garden once was. The Botanic garden was supposed to be a native plant garden, and that it is no longer. That is what we are sad about.

PS Please go back to LA
