I forgot to mention one other significant observation. If anyone is hoping to save any part of Laguna Beach from MLPA closures, your only hope is for this thing to get tossed. I may not agree with the point of view of the good citizens of Laguna Beach who showed up at this meeting, but I have to admire their organization.

This Laguna Beach contingent was supremely well organized. They were well spoken and all expressed their absolute support for closing all consumptive ocean access to the territorial waters of this city. If anyone in the crowd had a differing opinion, I did not hear it. Sure, it stunk of elitism, but the united message coupled with the lack of any argument from the opposition left a lasting impression on me.

We could probably learn something from the approach that this group has taken to get their point across.
