To my few, but valued, regular readers, I've been away. Not actually
traveling but sucked into the vortex of the political intrigue of my
city. I was appointed to be a member of the Traffic and Public Safety
Commission, which was given expansive powers to fight crime and interact
with the police and fire departments. I even set up a new website,Focus on Encinitas- where
I tried to locate my various, rants, exposes and critical analyses.
This essay is transitional, writing about that period as I
am coming out of it, trying to re-enter the broader world and
disengaging from the various conflicts focused on this city that had
consumed me for the last half year.
