. >> yes, what counts for the difference in the rates between marine and the lower? >> a couple of things. we have a strip to payback the $13 million reserve that we need in order to sign long-term contracts. since we don't have a creditworthy independent organization. we have a little bit set aside in case we sign of care customers. i think we have estimated what it would take to sign up 5,000 care customers. that is going down because our rate is going down, but it's still there. our budget, our administrative budget is higher. i actually think we'll be able to bring it down more, but i haven't consulted with the general manager about how much more we can strip out of that and still be safe. there is one more component. rim doesn't have a hundred percent green rate. i can't tell you offhand exactly what that component of the rate is, but it's probably around a penny for that. so it's a lot of little things to add up. >> you mentioned sonoma. have you figured out what they are going with? >> no. what they have is proposals in concept. so they still need to -- >> i t

i am a former marine.my question is what are your concerns about the chinese and russia and iran as far as hacking into her missile systems and hacking into technologies such as iran they stole the stealth bomber from us. i know the u.s. has disrupted the nuclear program and such like that but what countermeasures are the marines using as far as taking over the technology and saying hey we could steal this from you anytime we want? >> guest: that is a great question. it really is an emerging field in what he is referring to is i don't think it was a bummer. it was surveillance and that was brought down in iran and they were able to parade it out. expect more. right now cyberwarfare is funded and research and no one really knows. it's almost like any other weapon system that before it actually meets the battlefield they think it's a game-changer and it's not. during world war ii he thought battleships would be the future of naval warfare and it turns out aircraft carrier was, so every campaign that his plan

eugene lee had been a marine. i first learned about him not from the french list but, in fact, from a newspaper article published in small upstate new york newspaper shortly before veterans day 2003. the article was mostly about local world war ii veterans, but at the very end there was a short little paragraph and it said that eugene lee, the only world war i veteran in the area still living was 104 years old eugene lee of syracuse. and then added, and i quote, that he was quote no longer able to give interviews. which i take as a personal challenge. i called up the reporter who was very gracious and told me that the source of that information was a jump in named ji casey. as i said, eugene lee was a former marine. so was jim casey but he served in the late 1950s. mr. lee was a widower and had no children. as close as family was in nice. so jim casey was sort of an adopted son take a look in on mr. lee, took them out to eat sometimes. was a gatekeeper. i told mr. casey what i wanted to do. and he said that mr. le

marine is purchasing power from shell. >> yes. i have been in contact with them also. lastly the rate board has received the contract. they have not reviewed the current contract, is that correct? >> i'm not sure if they have reviewed the contract, they have reviewed the rate. the rate service board, they have been informed of our reduction in rates. they have held a hearing and heard from us on the reduced rate. >> but i'm sure their decision would be supported. >> they can be happy. >> right. i thought that was important to get in the record. thank you. >> commissioner? >> i would like to backtrack for a moment. why don't they have the $13 million aspect of their contract with them? >> that's a very good question and it's one that i have asked. again, i would have to speculate but, i believe there was an assumption that shell would be able to draw from the county's resources if there was a problem with the contract if the cca failed for some reason. if that was the assumption, i don't think it's correct. since marine launched it's program, it has been paying it's bil

on the weekends, marines came to because back then, you know, where else were the black marines going to go. columbia ould come to and go to drew park swimming pool where i worked. reens up closeema and personal. they were crazy. fly airplanes.to i thought that was inherently dangerous. not fly and i would not be a marine. naval st year at the academy, my first company officer was by the name of john officer.e, an infantry so much like my dad. he was tough. but incredibly fair. and although we wrl together for just one year, for my freshman naval academy, he so impressed me that my senior year, i said i want to be like him. so i did it. >> marine. sorties over vietnam? missions over north vietnam, laos, and cambodia. combat. >> what kind of plane. >> the best airplane god allowed make.o it was awesome. sat side-by-side. tandem seating. an intact aircraft. no supersonic flying. all we did was deliver weapons on the ground. most of my flying was done over vietnam. they were night low level planes. at night m went out with more than one airplane. >> how old were you? foolish.and i was th

he went over 20 years in the marine corps last week. it could be his first time being there and last time. i took my wife and son back to columbia where my mom and dad and jackie's mom were and put them in an apartment. we went from travis air force base to what i thought was going to be iwankanichi, japan. i brought my dress drawers and a trunk. i landed, and they said, squadron, that's yesterday. take your trunk, go over to the hanger, and get out enough underwear and flight suits for a month. because you are going south. i said going south where? they said, can't tell you. when i called my wife, she said, what's this secret airbase? i said what are you talking about? she said it is on the cover of "time" magazine. i ened up in the jungle. the c.d.'s had gone in and cleared all the cobras and the jungle out. the air force had started putting in a runway for the f- 111, but could never get it to run the way they wanted it, so they abandoned it. they gave us an extra 1,000 strip, and we lived there for a year. >> i'll come back to the p

marine is a different jurisdiction and what san francisco is trying to do is something unique and it's unique also because of the diverse population that we have and i think it's something that we are very proud of the equation here. i'm ready to move forward. i do hope that we use this as an opportunity to expand where we are and to invite all the different partners to make this program even better. but i think that not moving forward would go against the decision that the board of supervisors has made. i also want to acknowledge the work of the puc, our general manager and his staff and miss malcolm in particular because i know she has been working with many of the parties involved with cca for a very long time. you are a very quick learner. you have hit the ground up and running. and you are willing to work with them and take into account. what i need to know that we do more work out to provide what the outlook looks like. lastly to our lafco staff, to jason and miss miller, thank you for the amazing work and of course we wouldn't be here without the leadership of our chair commissi

also, right now, the democrats are in a little bit of trouble in marin.s a very serious issue with how they plan for more affordable house, more dense housing in areas of marin and people are yelling and screaming, it's gotten to extreme places. and that's actually a recall effort against one of the marin county members of the board of supervisors. so things are not looking good for local democrats. i think that the marin county republicans saw this as an opening to not necessarily increase their roles but at least get democrats in the area to think about some local republican candidates who have been firmly against this newhousing proposal. >> do you think that other republican groups will do the same? >> you can bet they are definitely paying attention. well, first of all, it requires a relatively moderate republican group to begin with. if you have a core group of republicans on the central committee who are right wing it's not happening soon. but in areas of say the bay area and greater los angeles, you can see more moderate groups maybe considering t
