Maybe more to the point, where does the methane (way more powerful than CO2 as a greenhouse gas)…Read More release go from the fracking process, where do the "secret"and other cancer causing chemicals go, and who pays for clean-up costs, increased healthcare costs of residents nearby, possible increased earthquake damage, etc. and where does this oil go (we can't use it--too dirty--so probably China)?

As I understand it, fracking wells "dry up" fairly quickly, which is why pressure to keep…Read More drilling so urgent. Where do the jobs go after a year or so? Just a thought....

"Please note: Parking in residential neighborhoods will not be allowed. Permit parking will be…Read More enforced."
Sounds like the neighborhood is off limits. Will that is half true. Parking in residential neighborhoods will be allowed because... the problem is there are pockets without permits or permit hours that can allow someone to go to the Car Show for 4 hours without fear of a ticket.
Duquesne does not have Permit Parking from Culver to Lucerne. Lucerne does not have Permit Parking. Braddock between Duquesne and Lafayette does not have Permit Parking.
No restrictions on Irving in front of the school.
Van Buren between the Pacific 12 theatre and Farragut has one hour parking from Noon to Midnight. So if someone parks at 9AM(the official opening time of the Car Show) the one-hour time limit would not start until noon. They would be able to be ticketed at 1PM if their vehicle was chalked at noon. If they moved their vehicle a couple of feet then the hour would restart.
All this information is know by the Downtown employees who park for free in our neighborhood... not just on Car Show Saturday but ALL year. This happens because the City fails to provide affordable off-street parking. Our neighborhood becomes affordable(free) employee parking.

If the City and businesses were smart, they would have it stay open longer. 3pm is too early. Heck,…Read More 4pm would be a big difference. They (former) almost had it moved to WLA College, no brainers. Thank you Dr Shery for your hard work and dedication towards this event

A big thank you to the Sony employees for volunteering their time to beautify the El Rincon campus!…Read More As the parent who came up with the "Rockets" name for El Rincon, I was particularly gratified to see the lovely job they did on the rendering of our new mascot. Bravo, Sony! Lisa Cushing

Niall... the Patch just went with what the official Culver City Press Release of April 16, 2013…Read More said. Showed it to a City Council Member today and pointed out the error.
Not the first time the City has released erroneous information. Last years Culver City Car Show was said to be "the Eighth Annual Cruisin' Back to Culver City Car Show" on the the Culver City Twitter account: https://twitter.com/CulverCityGov It was actually the 9th... the Patch repeated the error until corrected. http://culvercity.patch.com/articles/comedian-jeff-dunham-to-emcee-culver-city-car-show-saturday

Thanks for this write-up, but you should know that CicLAvia isn't an annual event, as stated in your…Read More lede. It's been semi-annual up to this point; the first event happened in October 2010 and it's followed an April/October schedule ever since. This year organizers hope to hold three events.
