Frequent Helicopter Circling
Joe - what happens when you view it on FlightAware (tends to offer slightly more ownership details)? https://flightaware.com/live/airport_status_bigmap.rvt?airport=KSBA other than that I've got no clue as to your query :(
Santa Barbara Family Featured in New York Times Article on Affordable House Hunting
Sorry, GOLETA - I'm not moving anywhere. I'm not forcing anything on anyone. Just saying it is hard to implement a successful mass transit like the tyrannical "socialist" Europeans have because no one will use it, given the choice of having their own car and space. Maybe you should travel and see how other, more civilized countries live.

mm1970 - hit it on the head there. His ilk are always quick with a "solution" - just don't live here. Any attempt to explain or present ideas that are contrary to the simple mindedness is met with trolling and insults. We're luck to live in a state that's not governed by this type of all or nothing thought.

That is the American way. Americans can choose to have a car if they want. You sound like a Socialist - time for you to move. "Socialism is an economic and political philosophy encompassing diverse economic and social systems characterised by social ownership of the means of production, as opposed to private ownership. It describes the economic, political, and social theories and movements associated with the implementation of such systems"

Ah, here is your problem local: you like simple. It's understandable - complexity and nuance is hard and takes thought, brain power, and compromise. "Commute" sounds so simple - until it isn't. Teachers, as an example - why would they commute from Ventura if Ventura schools actually pay more than SB schools? Extrapolate that to everyone on the various pay scales - including doctors. (Have you heard about the OB/GYN shortage in town?) Affordable housing is necessary. How we get there (UCSB and cottage creating their own housing for employees, Section 8, affordable condos that are sale price fixed for 40-60 years, low cost apartments that are tied to being employed in SB in particular jobs) - is complicated.
Cuyama Colors
I hear ya, Bird. :) Sometimes the time and expense of going to see something just doesn't seem worth it. I wonder what it is that makes it irresistible other times. I'm also curious whether the bloom is getting more intense or already fading. Our friend Nancy reported a bright yellow bloom at the Gaviota 101 curve. Maybe there's something special about chancing upon a colorful surprise on a familiar path.

Anonymous - Oh, my. Whatever are you implying?
Elderly Woman Falls 80 Feet from More Mesa Cliff in Goleta
Why is the term "elderly" even needed? "Woman falls 80 feet..." is clear enough.

Thanks! Surprisingly few flowers. With gas at mo re thane $5/gallon, this wingless flower-lover appreciates and will stay at home.

They did have their say. The conversation in this thread is one of the consequences. I've been chuckling at your screen name; it's ironic in this thread.

Anyone want to complain about THESE boomers and other elders?
Man Dies After Falling from Isla Vista Cliff
I did. From '89 to '91. Moved here in 1980, though. Don't really see why that's relevant, but there ya go. And to Goletalocalsince69 yes I'm aware that people, drunk and sober find ways to destroy themselves. I don't think throwing our hands up and saying 'ya can't fix drunk/stupid-no lawsuits!' is our only option, because: property values (also, lawyers looking to blame a property owner might find a target-rich field?). Wouldn't it be better for maybe a few of them if, instead of finding themselves surprisingly inebriated and facing a short barrier on a darkened precipice behind a building like Jacob and so many others did, they were in a park with lights and tables, late-night partiers, and maybe a line of nopal cactus and a double fence guarding the edge? Instead of clinging to a precipice we know will ultimately fail, why not cut back the edge and create a more natural slope? I know it's a somewhat fantastical notion. But the reality is that that cliff is going to eat some buildings if they sit there long enough, everyone knows that, and I just think that a balcony hanging over a 50 vertical drop just makes it easy for accidents and terrible impulses to take someone's life and that maybe it doesn't have to be that way. The "if" part of the future isn't that hard to predict here, only the "when". It's better to have a realistic long view than pretend it won't happen.
Coroner Releases Identity of Man Who Died After Falling from an Isla Vista Cliff
Look at the picture of the other article, the red fence is at least 4' high which clearly shows it at about 50' just like Co. Fire said.

Did you? No way to tell what's true anymore with this guy.

Apparently, in addition to not figuring out how to reply (in many instances), Dok doesn't grok what those upa and down arrow thingies are.

Lemme guess you didn't go to UCSB Kirk?

KNein - I'm going to guess the "bystander" smashed the windshield believing the car was being driven at them in an attempt to strike them and this was a defensive move. Strange what some people will do when in danger, would you agree?

No matter what is installed, a drunk will figure out how to cross it, Maybe on purpose? If they fall to their death, there is no one to blame but themselves, and no lawsuit should ensue.
