I read the critique of the forum being put on.
Having been the organizer of many an event, etc. And knowing that it takes time, energy and commitment to take on such a task...
I would urge those who have critiques to either help with this forum if the help is needed or organize your own.
I really feel for community activists who give of their time, usually unpaid to provide
a community resource and then wind up getting slammed for it.
Constructive criticism is one thing, but I have not seen the critique of this forum as being constructive.
The people organizing this forum are not our personal staff or servants.
Anyway, my thanks to the folks organizing this.

I will second this sentiment. Unfortunately I have another commitment on this evening, otherwise, I'd enjoy watching this forum from my former neck of the woods.
I hope 8th Ward residents go to the forum - and ask the questions that need to be asked.
