  1. I see the malcontents (Esther and Gary) have no clue as to how Wi Fi works--not surprised with that!

    Now their pal Grossman (who claims some kind of special financial knowledge) wants to stop the budget and audit UCO--not surprised that that either!!

    These folks are a train wreck that are continuing to blight CV--keeping our community with a bad reputation and our property values low.

    Do not let them wreck us all!
