Convention

I just finished attending the very first of many Town Hall Meeting to discuss ideas for the Second Tea Party. The idea of these meetings is to get as many members from the SL community as possible involved in the entire convention process, and to remain as transparent as possible with every aspect of it. I think the meeting went rather well. I'm posting the chat log for anyone that may have missed it. This log (and any that follow) will also be available on the Second Tea Party wiki, and social network. If anyone would like the two signs just message me in world and I'll drop them on you.

[14:03] Taco Rubio: well let's start up i guess - thanks everybody who showed up for the first of what we hope are several second tea party town halls....

[14:04] Taco Rubio: today moo had some things to explain, and then after we were going to have a Q&A time, which I'll moderate so we don't spam local chat.....so if you can think of questions IM me with them and if they aren't totally retarded I'll ask them for you ok?
