The following note from Laura (East Ender) Oates first appeared this morning in the NA Confidential comments section and deserves a marquee posting. There is nothing but good to be derived from a multiplicity of outlets for discussion and expression as we all seek to advance the idea that New Albany is "worth it."
"FYI: Regarding the opportunity for other Blog Spots to be created and used for the sharing of ideas and multiple opinions to be heard, rather than just being 'a soapbox for the original author,' I have created a blog for all to use as a soapbox.
Speak Out Loud NA:
This blog was created as a format for Neighborhood Associations in New Albany Indiana to exchange information, ideas, and openly express their views and opinions, about life in the city and the current state of our governmental administration that directly affects the quality of life here.
"I do expect intelligent and thoughtful postings and will not entertain the whims or rantings of unreasonable or unrelated issues.
"However, I feel there is a need for a place where everyone who is concerned with the condition of New Albany to have their concerns, questions, or problems aired in a public forum.
"With this Blog Spot, hopefully we can unite to solve common problems, help to solve individual problems, and generally support one another in earnest efforts to make New Albany a better place to call home.
"Until our City administration is able to get down to the business of addressing neighborhood issues, we will have to take on these tasks ourselves in the best way we can.
"So, have at folks. It is the people's soapbox."
