They want your credit card information to process an order that's free. Sorry, that's not going to…Read More happen. Call me paranoid, but is that just an oversight or is it their way of tracking their customer's buying habits? I like my privacy, how about you?

Oh yeah! Like I need advise from the Hollywood dung elite like Bill Maher and Danny D'Midget to…Read More offer me diet suggestions. If you don't like the product, don't buy it.

Yes, we are well aware of this & can not believe the Burlingame district is proceeding with the…Read More plans for this school. The footprint of the school does not allow for safe drop off and pick up. I have seen a couple of different plans for the drop off line & none of them are adequate for the location. The traffic will surely be a nightmare & I hope we are not moved to this school, as there is not proper access for drop off. Also, not sure why the plans keep changing, maybe because they can not come up with a good plan.

Who will respond to emergencies at Hoover School?
I measured the width of the two small bridges…Read More near the bottom of Canyon Road today. One is 17’ 10” and the other is 18’. Emergency response vehicles are 10’ wide, landscape pickup trucks are 8 feet wide and SUVs are 7’ feet wide. Consider what will happen every school day when children are dropped off at school. Traffic will stop on these two bridges and no emergency vehicles will be able to pass. This will happen every school day, twice a day even when there isn’t an emergency.
Consider what will happen during any real emergency. The school is located near the San Andreas Fault. Two 30” high pressure gas mains are even closer. The fire department plans to close the fire house on Hillside near the Hoover School. Who will respond to emergencies at Hoover School? How will responders get to the school?

Has anyone read the safety/disaster plan for Hoover School? The fire department admitted that they…Read More did not take Hoover School into account in the EXPENSIVE consolidation study they commissioned.
On April 9th, 2013 I attended a Burlingame City meeting on fire department consolidation . The fire department has paid for a study that recommends closing the fire house on Hillside. They plan to build a new station near Trousdale on Skyline in close proximity to two 30” high pressure gas mains (http://www.pge.com/myhome/edusafety/systemworks/gas/transmissionpipelines/) and within half a mile of the San Andreas Fault.
