I have to give you credit. You started posting this the first year you were on the School Board
and each year you have come back and posted, and asked for others to come forward and
support Sunshine Week, yet never any takers but you keep trying.

As said by Justice Brandeis

"Publicity is justly commended as a remedy for social and industrial diseases. Sunlight
is said to be the best of disinfectants
; electric light the most efficient policeman."

Another one of my favorites of his...

“The greatest dangers to liberty lurk in the insidious encroachment by men of zeal,
well meaning but without understanding.”

and...

"The most important political office is that of the private citizen."

Thanks for the post.

How ironic. Were this hospital fiasco not so seriously sad, it would be laughable.

So true, Ed.

What's the over-under on whether City Hall will shine some sun on their Lakewood Hospital shenanigans?

We will be working with our 5th grade journalism students on this Lakewood Hospital
liquidation, and Sunshine Week. Public record requests, asking questions, looking at
documents, and information from "secret sources." Should be a good exercise.

I would encourage all Civics teachers to join with us, we have lessons for every age that
we have been teaching in all the cities with Observers, that will tie in nicely.
