SAN ONOFRE � Nudists who congregate at the remote southern end of San Onofre State Beach can still let it all hang out, at least for a while longer.
A tentative ruling yesterday by an Orange County judge has halted plans by the state Parks and Recreation Department to enforce no-nudity rules after Labor Day.
The California Coastal Commission voted at 11:18 pm Wednesday night to deny a coastal permit to the Transportation Corridor Agencies. It will now be much more difficult for the TCA to construct the Foothill-South (241) toll road extension.
The vote was 8-2 in favor of denying certification. More to follow!
VOTES BY COMMISSIONER:
Blank � NO Burke � YES Clark � NO Kram � YES Neely � NO Reilly � NO Shallenberger � NO Wan � NO Kruer � NO (some voters were inaudible due to cheering)
Some Coastal Commissioners had very tough questions and very tough language for the TCA. Here are my favorite excerpts:
Commissioner SARA WAN, herself a scientist, was "appalled" at what she called the TCA's "false science". She even suggested the TCA's management plan for the mouse was "not a management plan at all except perhaps as a plan to drive the Pacific pocket mouse into extinction."
Commissioner MIKE REILLY cited the "limited value" of the TCA's $100 Million offer, and declared that "there is no legal way for us to concur with certification of this project."
The real kicker was Commissioner STEVE BLANK, who grilled the hell out of new TCA CEO Tom Margro. Citing TCA's claims that the 241 would serve as an evacuation route in a nuclear disaster,
BLANK said, "I was led to understand [San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station's] operating license was contingent upon having an approved evacuation plan. Has the government declared their plan inadequate?"
MARGRO: No - but can I elaborate?
BLANK: No, thank you, you've answered the question.
Margo then cited the TCA's threat that it could cost $70 Million to renew the lease for the state park.
BLANK: "Has the Navy ever denied the renewal of a lease of a state park?"
MARGRO: "I can't answer that question."
BLANK: "I believe the answer is no."
Burke went on to cite law discussed in this blog (State Park Scare Tactics) which would potentially allow for the lease to be renewed at less than $70 Million .
BLANK: "Doesn�t this mean there is a clear path for the lease to be renewed at a price other than $70 Million dollars?"
MARGRO: "It's possible."
BLANK: �Since Navy didn�t ask for $70 million dollars � Is it possible that they might ask for a dollar in 2021?�
MARGRO: "If they make findings."
BLANK: "So really at best it's a $30 Million dollar proposal"
MARGRO: "I would say it is a $100 million dollar proposal � for state parks."
BLANK: "Or a $30 Million dollar proposal?"
MARGRO: "Or $30 million � which still benefits state parks."
BLANK: "I have another question - Is there a price tag for a state park?

Fair use is the smallest part of the public's side of copyright. Sure, we have the right to quote, time-shift, format-shift, transform and so on. But the big piece is all the stuff that copyright shouldn't/doesn't touch: selling used media, watching your movies no matter what country you're in, the right to privacy in the books you read, and so on. All these are under fire in the copyright wars (I once had an argument with a MPAA vice president who wanted to make it impossible to watch a movie anonymously)... .
