Pierce on Columbus...
Ohio, that is:
I decline to trade Ann Arbor for Columbus, a college town that looks like Albert Speer got bored and gave up on it halfway through the project.OK, now THAT was funny :-)

Are you going to Austin? Will you be at this session?
The New Orleans Resurgence: Netroots Innovation in the Citizen-Driven Recovery of New Orleans
Saturday, July 19th 3:00 PM - 4:15 PM
Panel, Room 19
Time: Saturday, July 19th, 3:00pm - 4:15pm
Room: Room 19
With under-funded federal agencies in the incapable hands of political appointees, New Orleanians had to organize and fund their own recovery. In the vacuum of government, New Orleanians have formed increasingly sophisticated grassroots and neighborhood organizations. Neighborhood organizations that engage in urban planning, provide social services, partner with foundations, universities and Fortune 500s to create the institutions that civil society needs to function. This is not a story of the invisible hand of the marketplace, but the hands-on work of tens of thousands citizens and volunteers, working together in the largest grassroots campaign in the history of the United States.
Al Giordano at The Field is the best political blogger anywhere: http://narcosphere.narconews.com/thefield
I highly recommend his work.
