Pacific Grove Council Chamber is full—for a zoning administration meeting. People are here because of proposal to open a record store/performance venue downtown. Here's the backstory: https://t.co/iquSj5u2dT
Biking around during Car Week and smelling fumes. I cannot help but think we should treat these toxic machines as important pieces of history—put them in a museum about ingenuity and such—but they should not be celebrated and they sure as hell shouldn't be street-legal.
