Come on Minneapolis, you can do it! You can drive across the river to greet our international guests.
We've had an excellent response to this idea from St. Paul, but the folks that get the actual conference (see http://dowire.org/localedem ) in their city have been silent. So if you think you _might_ join us for an E-Democracy.Org wide event on July 25 this summer, drop us an e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Perhaps we should have a "posting slam" where members of the different cities would read their favorite recent posts to audience applause to see which city has the best forum.
