Re: Progress???
"Neal Breakfield, an engineer in the oil industry says, "When you get down to it, the only thing that people need when it comes to fiber is fiber in their diet. Nobody needs a fiber optic system, people need good telecommunications services."
So you have an engineer in the OIL INDUSTRY head up your citizens group against fiber.
And take a look at this winners picture...
They shouldn't have fiber, these people are WAY too smart for fiber.

Well, I can't argue with that... fiber IS pretty much worthless without good telecommunications services  |

I may consider going back to Lafayette (due to work) so hpefully they approve this.

I live in Lafayette as well. I can assure you that Neal Breakfield and Bill Leblanc are in the minority and that they will have a very difficult time getting the signatures that they need. At a public meeting this week, they couldn't even tell the council how many signatures they need or what exactly the petition was going to be.
I have a friend who emailed Neal 2 days ago asking for information on the petition. My friend is opposed the plan (knows that he is not on the winning team) was disappointed to find that he still hasn't received a response. He sent it to the address on »www.fiber411.com site.
It is my personal belief that these guys saw their name in the press and felt like they needed to feed their ego's by getting some more ink. During the public meetings 50+ people spoke in favor of the city moving forward - 3-8 people spoke against it. I have to say 3-8 because some of the people who spoke were so unfocused that you couldn't tell if they were for or against it because of faulty facts given to them. |

Have you ever met a halliburton engineer. They are all duche bags but they all have more education and knowledge of technology than a Southern (jags,williams ) graduate and a criminal justice major(Randy Menard) who is an x-cop that no body wanted around anymore. I put my money with a winner. Halliburton is all about profit. Lus is not. I work for a government agency and they do not really care about making money or saving money. Gov't only cares if it is in the budget. |

If you want real information instead of mindless jabs and insults, go to www.fiber411.com.
We are in fact finding it very easy to get signatures on the petition because people really do feel that we should be able to vote on the matter. Approximately 8 out of 10 eligible registered voters in the community are signing the petition. Most people consider it a no-brainer. We have a lot of people who are in favor of the project signing the petition because they recognize that the community as a whole should have a voice.
We have over 2,600 signatures on the petition and it is growing every day!
