Thanks.
Actually what I was referring to in my post you would not have seen 
unless you receive the Sunnyvale government channel on cable.  During the 
discussion about disseminating information about the study via the 
Internet, one councilmember displayed a very negative attitude about the 
net and the convenience of using the City's current facilities/domain 
name for access to the net.  The councilmember subsequently tried to 
disguise the negativism by trying to attach it to a separate and 
wholly unrelated admonition by another councilmember that the policy should 
only recommend use of improved telecommunications where there was a real
benefit to the City i.e., not to spend money just to have a system with the
newest goodies but with no improvement in service.

I was just curious what anyone who watched thought about the discussion.
