This blog is dedicated to presenting public policy proposals and commentary we hope will point to possible new ways to achieve our  goals.  A detour, if you will, from our present course.  To focus all the attention on ideas, we won’t reveal authors, titles or associations.  In these polarized times, people tend to tune out anyone who they perceive to be on the other side.  However, we might add a first name just to humanize the idea.  We invite you to read our ideas and then form an opinion.  You may have question or comments.  We welcome them.   A prompt reply is our goal.  Please give us a little time if some research is required.  We hope you can help us perfect our proposals and maybe make a real difference in what we accomplish in the future.
