Ignorance is bliss, what a class act you are. You no more represent this area then the ones you complain about.

For all you tree huggers and retired geriatric patients out there complaining about industry moving to the Bay Area. GO AWAY! This area needs family wage jobs to support families! Wow, what a concept. Instead of working at the local grocery store or gas station where you can’t afford to pay attention let alone support a family. Without these jobs who is going to stay and change your bedpans? Go back to where you came from. You are not obviously from around here or you would know we use to be an industry leader.

Every time that Jody McCaffree makes a solid point the promises from Jordan Cove increase. OK COMMUNITY BENEFITS, Jordan Cove can tell us anything and they have. Put it in writing Jordan Cove. You will pay for everything including constant dredging, tugs, public safety, Coast Guard, impact on the fishing fleet and airport, hospitals, taxes from day one, and you will hire and train local people first for temporary and permanent jobs. Fred Kirby had all of this in his web site for the past four years and we didn't listen. Now we are.

You are selling us Oregon citizens out to this lng useless stuff (California gets this expensive gas) for tax revue to bail yourself self out due to your pathetic way of running the state into the ground! Show you care & fight this lng useless stuff that only benefits foreign investors, tug boat operators & alike!

Correct Jane, Arizona is nothing but a desert that has little to offer but HOT sun, but has the Grand Canyon & KNOWS how to market successfully unlike this state of Oregon! You can include many other successful states that are growing & have little industrial too like New Mexico, Florida, Hawaii etc. Industrial will NEVER bring prosperty to this state & will only bring in LESS tourist (Tourists want to see beauty & NOT Industrial) & retiring baby boomers (They want to MOVE out of the cities away from Industrial)! State leaders of Oregon wake UP & see that this beautiful state deserves better then trashing it with industrial garbage that will ruin it for future generations to come!

Community benefits,
500 million from a USELESS (California gets the gas) EXPENSIVE (LNG is TWICE as expensive as existing natural gas) INDUSTRIAL GARBAGE (EYE sore polluter in Tsuami zone) that is POLENTIALLY DANGEROUS to thousands of people living near the bay (LNG ship will have roughly a 2 mile BURN zone if it catches fire & blows UP & LNG storage along with the 230 miles of pipe can produce out of control forest fires caused by leak & started with lightening or any spark)!
vs
Billions of $$$ through tourism (Arizona draws OVER 7 million people a yr) & near term baby boomers retirements & with NO physical impact to this GREAT beautiful state of Oregon!
Say NO to California LNG SCAM!

The Jordan Cove Energy Project will result in a direct investment of more than $500 MILLION into Coos County.
Since the county doesn't have
TIMBER REVENUES, why not?
Do you think that jails, juvenille detention centers, and drug treatment facilities are unnecessary?
You girls need to move into a National Park somewhere.
And yes, my facts come from:

Marvin Smoot is that you? "Common Sense" Are you Jordan Cove, Williams, Pacific Connector guys commenting too? I've heard you've used that CAVEman joke in phone calls to landowners that have the 36-inch, high pressure Pacicif Connector Gas Pipline being forced through their property, when you where trying to convince them to let you do surveys on their land. What do you industry boys know about living in Coos Bay, or having your property taken? Sure, you'll take the profits. Go Jody!

To reality & rest of Bob Braddock people:
Since when is "reality" a name & I noticed NO facts expressed by you for a counter arguement in favor this this LNG SCAM....now that's WEAK....SORRY!
Same ole question that NO pro LNG person can answer:
IF LNG is so safe, so clean, offers so many jobs, why has HUNDREDS of areas rejected it vs LESS then 10 that have accepted it???
Facts: Even Oregon's Dept of Energy came out with a report on May 09, 2008 & said LNG was twice as expensive as existing gas, polluted more & IF Oregon more gas in the future gas from the Rockies would be cheaper & pollute LESS! Concluded gas prices would go UP if LNG was used in Oregon & finally said Oregon does NOT need LNG PERIOD!

Since the "real" "common sense" has no REAL COMMON SENSE, just paranoid rants.

Yeah the "real" Common Sense speaks the truth on this foreign investor forced on ordinary USA citizens SCAM. It's pretty pathetic when the few pro California LNG people start using other people's name! I guess you are making a BIG impact on this whole California LNG SCAM by stating facts vs making up stories as you go along as these pro California LNG people are doing! Keep up the good work, because the people that care about this area & Oregon itself KNOW who the "real" Common Sense person is!!!

Cute someone else using my name...
Sorry Bob Braddock & his few fellowers:
LNG only is supported by people that are profiting from this SCAM...
Better read Oregon's Dept of Energy May09,2008 record again:
A) LNG twice as expensive as regular domestic gas
B) LNG pollutes more then regular domestic gas
C) LNG would increase gas prices if used in Oregon
D) IF Oregon needs gas in the future, the gas coming from the Rockies would be cheaper & pollute less then importing LNG
No brainer SCAMMERS on LNG not good for Oregon...SORRY

And, dont forget that Braddock told us that most jobs would be filled by outsiders and that we are too busy to fill jobs.

Bruce and CAVE (Citizens Against Virtually Everything),
Um yeah, and building an LNG terminal will make earth 10% more likely to get hit by a giant asteroid. When will your ridicuculous scare tactics end? Many of us are tired of watching our schools crumble because of lack of funding, business close because of lack of industry, and our children move away never to return because of a lack of decent wage jobs. It's time to get Coos Bay back to where it was for the past 150 years, which is an industrial booming port city. This change begines here and now with LNG...

This newspaper has always supported the LNG promoters, despite their most recent disingenuous editorial proclaiming a faux ambiguity ......... but you got in a good letter anyway.
