Bobby J...thanks for the IRS ID number.

In post #9, the Walton Sun's David Magliano quotes you and then identifies you as a board member; board members are directors of organizations.

In post #68 I identified you as a director.

In post #70 you denied being a director.

I would think you would want the public to have the correct percecption of your position with Surfrider; since the Walton Sun has mistakenly put you in a leadership position at the highest level, I thought you might want them to correct the article.


I am one of many board members. I originally read your question as am I "the director"? Please excuse my confusion. Looking back over these threads you correctly identified me as a director. I told you I get jumbled up. :blush:

Bobby J...please stop denegrating yourself! I don't see your postings as being jumbled. By in large, they are well thought out and well written. I have been impressed with a lot of your postings in content and expression.

Please stop with the jumbled stuff. You are not that.

Thanks again for the ID number

It would seem that some people are opposed to the people having a voice in beach access issues. For far to long the beachfront has had the only voice. They have proven that they do not have our interests at heart. From red sand to seawalls they have provided a current example of Hardin's tragedy of the commons. The ocean belongs to us all, as a mother. BMB.....it is a very mean brother, that would keep his brother from the mother!

With simply one click, once on surfrider.org, it is easy to see the interests of the organization. Here is one:

"

CAMPAIGNS

Florida Beach Access Amendment

Initiative: Beach Access
pixel.gif

Chapter(s): Florida - state wide
pixel.gif

Description: The Florida Open Beaches Act would ensure that citizens are able to save existing accesses to Florida beaches, all of which are designated as public shore land under the Florida Constitution. A key feature of the act addresses the increasingly problematic issue of gaining perpendicular access as the coast becomes more further developed. Among U.S.'s three largest coastal states, only Florida does not have a comprehensive law to protect citizens' access to public beaches. We scored an important victory in early 2005 by securing a legislative sponsor for the act and a legal battle in Ponte Vedra. We continue to gather public support for this act.

BMBW, before beating yourself up and questioning everything, take 30 seconds to at least read about the basics of the organization. You could save yourself and everyone else the hassles of answered questions which have already been addressed. ;-)

Bobby J, you do not need to keep saying your words get jumbled up. From reading every post in this thread, you have made complete sense. The only one who seems to be confused is this BMBWalker person, and he may be on crack...

BMBW, how's things going with that number? Please provide information on what has been unearthed so far.

Maybe he is still counting? :dunno:

Interesting comments...what is meant by "maintaining the area's beaches in the future"; aren't they maintained well now? They look and seem to function better now than they did in mid-July 2005.
Also, how many Surfrider Foundations advocates own Gulf front property? I can't afford Gulf front property at today's prices, but I certainly have no right to infringe on the rights of Gulf front property owners and it sounds like you folks want to have control of the beach property without paying for it. Am I wrong?
Are you wrong? Yes, and also misleading. You state that you can't afford Gulf front property at today's prices, yet you also state in another thread that you own Gulf front property. Surfrider has many statements which also includes their mission statement, which doesn't state anything about the organization wanting to have control of the beaches, neither private nor public.
