CROSBY, J.,
Concurring. — The majority opinion reaches a correct result, but the holding is hornbook law and hardly worthy of publication. (See, e.g., 4 Witkin, Summary of Cal. Law (9th ed. 1987) Real Property, § 550, pp. 719-720; Civ. Code, § 718.) Moreover, open-ended leases and options in perpetuity must be about as common as polar bear sightings in Death Valley. The Court of Appeal is not likely to see another such case in the next 99 years.
A petition for a rehearing was denied July 22, 1994, and the petition of appellant Donna Shaver for review by the Supreme Court was denied September 14, 1994.
