J: OK, so if I read this right you are saying that there still might be a case for the “r-selected” behavior to overwhelm the “k-selected” behavior and instead of leveling off either continue expanding or to crash?

MA: You are a very bright young man James.

J: Well it took you an hour to help me get it.

MA: That is an hour well spent.

J: Is there any way to know for sure?

MA: Of course there is, why don’t you come back tomorrow and we will see what we can see - so to speak.

J: Excellent.

South San Francisco



I moved from the beach yesterday. The bare bones motels by the sea are OK for a day or two but you miss some of the nicer touches.

I love staying by the sea. The air is so rich and full or smells and tastes, but I learned from experience that nothing ever dries well there. Ruined some clothes with mildew once in 48 hours.

I checked in to one of the Marriots by the bay. They have a weekend deal right now that is hard to pass up.

For those of you going to the city for the first time, do not pay the outrageous rents they want in the city - go out by the airport and have a nice stay for a reasonable rate, and you can still be in the city in 15 minuets.

You will not like the cost vs/ actual accommodations value in many of the San Francisco Hotels, obviously if you stay at some of the places I only get to drive by then that will be different and God bless you for that.
