Jeezuz JR, I stopped subscribing to the Chronicle years ago. When they
wanted to know why I blamed the plastic bags the paper comes in. They
still haven't solved that.
But anyway, you have the Internet so why the hell would you even want a
paper version of the news? The Chron is still a full sized newspaper
but the Contra Costa Times and probably Mercury News are tabloid size
these days (about the same size as a magazine page).
I also get local news via streaming radio and local news blogs. Believe
it or not there is a new paper news startup over here in Martinez though
they have a decent responsive design web site which requires a
subscription too. They delivered free papers the first month in
business. It's a weekly though and the local businesses can afford the
advertising.
Funny, the Talk910 weather forecast says "sprinkles". Ol' Lloyd is
going to get a lot of ribbing from Gil Gross today like "ever try
stepping outside?"

Bhairitu,
To tell you the truth, I've stopped reading the local newspaper
because it was making me depressed, not necessarily because it cost
$1.50 a copy now. So far, I haven't heard the shooting stats in
Oakland, CA lately.
I've noticed that there is no TM activity here in SF. There's an
office address, but I haven't heard of any announcements from them.
At least, when I was in Seattle, there was a TM center that was more
active.
Woohoo! I'm delighted to see the rain. That means I don't have to
water my lawn this week. Keep it coming!

How is Chicago comparing with Oakland. Is it a contest? :-D
I doubt if TM will help. Probably some jobs or a guaranteed basic
income might help though.
What's this funny stuff falling from the sky today in the Bay Area?

Many people are getting shot and killed on the streets of Chicago
during the past two weekends. Will this happen as well in big cities
throughout the USA? Can this trend be mitigated by having more TMers
in big cities? Is the Dome in Fairfield IA enough to create the ME
for the entire country?
