Why should the city of SF decide this issue? While the people of SF may
have far more valuable opinions than do the other residents of the Bay Area,
and while the city of SF owns SFO airport, it's still NOT their bay!!

While the idea being sold to you (giving the people of SF the power to kill
the bay fill via vote) may be intoxicating, what if that vote goes the other
way? (It would! - they just want to land on time, and that's how they're
being sold the bay fill in the first place!)

Seems to me this is just a sneaky way to make it look like 'the people'
concerned were consulted, when actually only those people who stand to make
money (the city of SF) would be consulted. The very idea of this being
placed before "the voters" reeks of subterfuge and conspiracy by SF
powers-that-be vs the Bay Area at large. The issue being sold onto the SF
ballot is completely a red herring.
