The opposition to the\r\nopening of a Starbucks in Ocean Beach predates by many\r\nmonths the BIO conference. While some people who were in\r\ntown to protest the BIO conference may have been at the\r\nOB rally, more than twice as many people have attended\r\nprevious anti-Starbucks events, months before BIO came to\r\ntown. OB remains as an enclave of unique local color in San\r\nDiego, one of the few affordable coastal communities left\r\nin the city, with much more than average old-fashined Main\r\nStreet USA-feel and small business vitality. Obeceans view\r\nStarbucks as yet another corporate enterprise, bringing\r\nwith them rising rents, gentrification, and other unwelcome\r\nsocial effects.\r\n\r\n","author":"Guy Berliner","parent_id":8291,"mime_type":"text\/plain","created":"2001-07-02 00:26:11","modified":"2001-07-02 00:47:12","fileurl":""},{"id":8422,"heading":"x","article":"Real Obeceans either welcome Starbucks, or have no opinion.  The only affordable housing I know of are the run-down apartments that house the great unwashed you view as colorful.  As for \"Main Street - USA\", Real locals don't even like going to Newport Ave, what with all the white trash drug addicts and dealers everywhere.  The average person could sit on the curb and people-watch for just 10 minutes before getting disgusted, wondering what is happeneing to society.  If you think Starbucks brings unwelcome social effects, and The BLack brings Main Street charm, you really need to reevaluate your priorities, and, please, don't procreate.","author":"x","parent_id":8291,"mime_type":"text\/plain","created":"2001-07-04 17:32:19","modified":"2001-07-04 18:00:01","fileurl":""}]}
