A nice comment.

California Landmark[edit]

I am not sure what the point of writing such long entry on Moss Beach talk board was. Were you trying to state I was not being a reasonable person because I would not admit that the Moss Beach Distillery was Historical Landmark? The simple fact is that the Distillery is not a CHL.

There is a distinct difference between CHL's and Points of Historical Interest. In fact, the rules state "No historical resource may be designated as both a Landmark and a Point." How to Nominate a Property as a California Historical Landmark or California Point of Historical Interest Page 4. A Point can be upgraded to a Landmark, but they are two different creatures. And while it is true that they are generally governed by the same set of laws, the requirements are vastly different, along with the level of "protection" and the type of marker or plaque they receive. In fact, a Point only receives a general road marker indicating saying "A Point of Historical Interest" (See page 12 of the PDF under 5022.5). It is up to the owner of the Point to actually set up the marker or plaque.

As to your comment that that it is "[i]t is a crime to have a plaque on a building that is not a California Point of Historical Interest" that is simply mistaken. They are literally hundreds of building that have markers that are not California Points of Historical Interest, but local points of historical interest. See the downtowns of San Jose or Pleasanton.

All this being said, chances are the Distillery is a Point of Historical Interest. But I cannot confirm this with the Office of Historic Preservation 1

I've reset the rangeblocks to be anon-only, however, they have been used extensively by Cplot for vandalism, and if it continues, the full blocks will have to be reinstated. I'd suggest finding out who at your ISP can actually do something about this, and passing me that information; I'll be most happy to give them a call and provide them with all the information they'll need to terminate his service for terms-of-service violations.

Note to self: fix this if this wildcard blocking BS ever stops:((([edit]

With a 2006 budget of over 2.4 billion dollars it employs 10,891 people including 5,320 Special Agents.[1]

/* Organization */ budget 14 billion -> 2.4 billion (a little more realistic)

Re:Error[edit]

Thanks for pointing that out - it looks like I made a typo. It was actually 1977, not 1971. Weatherman90 23:30, 9 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
