For several weeks now, I have noticed that when our trash get's picked up, it seemed like it was only one garbage truck doing it. Today, I just happened to be outside when they came, and I watched and ... sure enough ... they were putting both the trash and recycling into the same truck. I stopped the driver and asked him what was happening, and he said his boss told him the recycling truck was broken, and to go ahead and just put everything in one. Wow, what a mess.
Trash and Recycling in the Same Truck?
Watching the garbage being picked up in Novato.

Tina, I have left a few comments on blogs and they been eliminated. I have also emailed…Read More Jim....don't think I will get response. So sorry the trolls have taken over. I am blocking Patch from my email.
Tina McMillan May 21, 2013 at 10:33 am
The email for the new editor is jimw@patch.com (Jim Welte). I have asked him who we can email with…Read More complaints and requests. If more people write in perhaps they will listen.

Moylans has always been there for us. They rock! They also provided the brew for my biz opening…Read More party and they are an important part of Novato.

Where's the daily/weekly weather report? It used to be at the top of the front page? I really liked…Read More reviewing it with just a glance.

This new site is great . I wonder if the Posters who wanted to run the old Patch site with all…Read More the phony garbage/ postings are sneaking a peak to see a new / better patch . They all complained and said they will quit if not changed back. Guess what folks We have always told you if you want change you need to get out of your computers face and take action . We did just that and look at our reward, A new site for regular people who have common sense .. Thank You Patch

Making us start over is the plan to wear us down. Free press is paid for by advertisers, and…Read More pressure is put out to stifle stories. That's what the tobacco industry did to 60 Minutes, and the Isreli government did to the Goldberg Report. The United Nations couldn't put out the story of mass genocide of the Palestinian people, and we'll be kicked off the blog soon because we don't advertise.

I thought I was being overly suspicious but the new site eliminated months of research and…Read More commentary and has replaced it with irrelevant banter and Ads.
It won't even let you edit thoughts into smaller blocks or comment directly to another post. It is the ultimate dumbing down of Patch.
If you have been following the Plan Bay Area debate here is a link to the response from the Supervisor's:

We got sold down the river by the developers. Under the guise of a new improved format, they just…Read More erased our history. Now we have to start defending our town all over again, while they are already in gear. Some of the opponants of AH can't get on anymore. Brent would not have allowed this to happen. Maybe that's why he left so suddenly, and unexpectedly.

If you want information about various groups then go to the websites and read about them for…Read More yourself. If you would stick to one name perhaps people wouldn't confuse your posts with Bud Lite and the other troll accounts.

The truth hurts and most of the Information you provide is only your thoughts and not fact. Like…Read More many have said to you before ,You can have your opinion and we don't care about it but when you post it we will post the truth behind it. Three days ago you were leaving the site and writing letters to complain because your group could not have its way anymore . You also call everyone who post a different option than yours bud Light or other names. We still are looking for the answer to the question from your group . What are you going to do to save the value of our homes ?

I am not sure which group you are referring to. I belong to Novato Community Alliance and…Read More Novato Homeowners Association. Both are grassroots groups working with local government to ask much needed questions regarding Plan Bay Area.
Your comments are reminiscent of a previous poster named Bud Lite who was engaged in heated exchanges. Since his name continued to evolve it was only his message that made him recognizable.
No one can give you the world but NCA and NHA are both resources that can provide information and discussion of important local issues.

Craig,
One wonders if you were hired to do the talking for the two advertisers above who you…Read More say bailed ? . Have you ever used the words maybe, contract or expired ?
Craig Belfor May 21, 2013 at 08:51 pm
Can't find a Ghiringellis ad or Famous Holt ad. The advertisers are bailing faster than Julia at a…Read More carport party.

Find comments by pressing the little red circle at the upper right of an article. You must sign in…Read More to comment. Later you can delete in your email all the comments forwarded to you. Do keep emailing to Jim Welte to change the format to the previous one as easier to access and with ads to one side not Grapenuts ads covering the news.
Working within the system and changing it will help those new to blogging. Thanks for cooperating.
