| Is there a pro-muni group in Lafayette? Is there a group advocating muni broadband that's active in Lafayette? If not, there needs to be, and soon. Here's what I think needs to happen.
A group is formed and set up as a nonprofit organization.
The group establishes a Web site and prepares to take donations.
The group is publicized on muni-broadband Web sites, Slashdot, and any other news outlets that will run a story.
Donations are used to produce materials and advertisements promoting the benefits of muni broadband.
Look, we know BellSouth and Cox are gonna sink money into this, so the other side needs to do the same. You can't count on LUS to be able to spend serious cash to promote this because they probably don't have the money. Therefore, those who support this initiative need to come forward and get the ball rolling.
If a group gets organized and active in Lafayette, I'd be willing to donate. I have a PayPal account ready, and I'm not afraid to use it.  |

Their "help out" link is for soliciting ideas, not money, so you won't need your paypal account just yet:

Maybe you could submit your suggestion? |
