Thanks for posting this Will. I often get frustrated attending meetings (or reading forums) where it’s clear that everyone has already made up their mind one way or the other and are only generating comments to support their positions. You did a good job of distilling and reporting the conversation in a fair and readable manner. Our local media should take note.
From IFC:
