Mediocre to Awful
Scientific American has an article about a new report that rates our science programs by state. The report concludes that the U.S. state science standards are "mediocre to awful."

What happens when you toss in a blender: vast wads of public federal cashola, over-reaching arrogant state bureaucratic ideologues, Washington Redskin Wannabes, clueless white elderly massively wealthy save-the-planet donors, Astroturf eco-advocacy stormwater troopers, baffled, bewildered and bullied local elected officials, psuedoscientist astrologaster yes men ...

Why, you wind up with the San Juan County Critical Areas Ordinance and Shoreline Master Program.
Any questions?
Honestly I'm not one to kick a dead horse but Howie Rosenfeld's quote in the Journal as he talks about his loss and the CAO's is just too much: "The potential negative impacts were way over dramatized. It's sad, the CAO is a good product. It's complicated only because it's flexible."
ReplyDeleteMy God man, do you realize how completely out of touch with reality you are? Have you read the junk you supported? Good bye and good luck!
Lovel Pratt, in the same report by Scott Rasmussen, hints, while she sounds like someone still running for office, she will "reexamine" her work on the County Council in light of the election results.
Well that's just great lady, but you and a couple of other people pretty much destroyed a reasoned and well thought out County Charter that like the CAO needed a gentle edit.
Good bye Howie and Lovel.
