Sempra Chief Exec Dumps Almost $1 Million of Stock

I hate the idea that our utility company is owned by an opportunistic money grubbing bunch from Wall Street. They get fat on the backs of fixed income "little people" and then pay themselves obscene compensation packages. Deregulation was the worst thing that ever happened to California consumers, Steve Peace should be in jail. I want to buy my gas and electric from anyone other than SDG&E. I would vote for returning all local utilities to be municipal companies, wouldn't you?

Don’t Lien on Me: The Pala Band Tries to Return to Warner Springs

I'm in...sign me up, let's file this class action lawsuit to shut down the Ranch and complete the sale. I will be glad to contribute to whatever it takes to stop this madness. Pala has announced that they will close the Ranch for much needed repairs after the close of escrow, which is clearly a waiver of the contract requirement that the Ranch be turned over as an operating business. Shut it down NOW. Stop the bleeding, the Ranch has been bankrupt for years.

Don’t Lien on Me: The Pala Band Tries to Return to Warner Springs

Don, thank you for the excellent article. I have been a quiet WSR owner for 20+ years, diligently paying my monthly assessments until this fall. It has become clear that the place is being kept open for the benefit of the few owners that continue to use it. The same ones who negotiated the ten year deal with Pala (Pala agreed to operate the ranch in the manner that those owners insisted for the next ten years). The current Board and management are totally self-serving; they have abandoned any pretense of fiduciary duty. Unfortunately, there is little doubt that these actions will spawn more lawsuits in the future.

Bicyclists Be Damned

Sounds just like a La Jolla "incident".
