clerk, clerk : Commented that his PRR's are not done because he likes to, it's is because he is doing his own leg work in his lawsuits. He is not just doing a pubic
records request, he is doing an investigation. This has to do with his rights to have a fair trial. He is going to continue to ask for public records, because that is his right.

AM John Fabian clerk, clerk : Commented on global warming. Last year was the second warmest
