Growing up I was surrounded by so many people with undiagnosed mental illness mine seemed trivial.
  • When I was young I recall visiting my aunt in a mental institution many times. I was told she had a nervous breakdown but it wasn't discussed beyond that.

    When Reagan closed all the mental institutions she bounced around boarding houses. The first ones were terrible. Later ones were much, much better.

    When I was older I found we took the same meds.

    Discussion of mental illness is still avoided in my family.

    Group opposing OAK airport expansion says health concerns have been ignored
  • I sent this email to the writer:

    Is there any expansion push back from the people in Alameda, specifically Bay Farm?

    I work in Bay Farm adjacent to where the planes take off. I've noticed strong fuel smells in the morning especially when there is high humidity. These fumes cannot be good for long time residents.

    Regards, Mike

  • Awesome.

    I was leaving the library over day with my son and looked at the cart of free books. Stone Soup was on that cart and damned sure I grabbed it.

    Gifted it to a friend on their child's first birthday.

    OakDOT paving plan hits a pothole, but roadwork will continue for now
  • The major streets usually get attention but the smaller ones usually have delayed repairs.

    An important part of good roads is continuous repairs and repaving.

    I've previously posted articles about Oakland's repaving rate compared to other local cities. At the time Oakland was lagging.
