A lot of folks boo-hooing the demise of the site…did all y’all attend the informational meeting? It would have been nice to have folks who would stand up FOR the project there. Too late.

Blue Lake…better weather, goat friendly neighbors and a large, currently unused dairy.

What a huge disappointment for the City of Arcata.

Especially at a time when new jobs are so precious.

Whoever prevented this great opportunity for progressive growth should be ashamed.

Hum+ I believe he means boycott Tule Fog Farm because of linking the protest to possible interest by Tule Fog Farm in that parcel. The insinuation is that the protest was organized because the parcel changing hands would disrupt any plan of Tules Fog Farm leasing the parcel. Now that potential investors would think the parcel was more trouble than it was worth, it would be easier for them to move in.

I don’t see this as logical, it sounds like conspiracy theory. Only if such a thing happened would the dots connect. Until it occurs, I will be giving them the benefit of the doubt.

Sean, I’d have thought that by now you might have grown weary of embarrassing yourself and your family by continuing to spew your special brand of misery-based bullshit and self-righteous, out-of-context disinformation. It’s official, you have become a parody of yourself and the poster boy for a small and very shrill part of Arcata that is at once sad and repellent.

I tried to find the link between Dutch goat barns and the 2002 Lane County Fair E. coli outbreak.

I did find one link that suggested a causal relationship… but it did not provide a source.
