Pacheco's too far for me, Dillon - I'm a city boy. So I froze my off at
Mt. Tam Saturday instead: 41 degrees and wind at about 35 mph steady.
Jane and MoJo stayed until after the lecture to show stars to the

You can always argue about spelling in a previously unknown alien

derived from a mispronunciation.
It IS, and ALWAYS was, "BARADA" with a "B!"
What kind of a half-baked speech pathologist are you?
Montebello?
Lake Sonoma?
