we have a legacy of taking bold steps that benefit our community. When Volkswagen announced Chattanooga as its headquarters for North American manufacturing, and Amazon.com chose our city for their new distribution centers, it was a nice confirmation that we’re on the right track.

from part talking to Kosta:
2. Longmonts power grid also delivering Internet is a lot like what went down in Chattanooga Tennesee: http://chattanoogagig.com/Only in Chattanooga, Tennessee is 1 Gigabit-per-second Internet speed available to every home and business – over 150,000 of them – throughout the entire community. Urban or rural, business or residence, Internet speeds that are unsurpassed in the Western Hemisphere – from 50 Megabits-per-second all the way up to one gigabit-per-second are accessible here. Today.[..], fiber is powering smart investment by attracting creative entrepreneurs who are eager to explore what is possible with so much bandwidth. In 2012, they are launching Lamp Post Lab, bringing bright undergraduates from around the country together to explore what can be built using the world’s fastest Internet[..]But we’re just getting started. Because everything we create – from infrastructure to opportunity – we build of, by and for our community.

“The next chapter of the Chattanooga story is waiting to be written. All of us here have the power to write it together.” #Berke2017
imagine that as literal.. @AndyBerke ie: host life bits have to free people if you want to see them dance
so .. truly a chicken and egg scenario.. need the connection.. need the people free to figure… to use it.. to solve problems.. to make it a common ing thing..
ie: from 2014 – one home at a time

People living just outside the city limits cannot sign up for the service because Longmont can only serve its residents. Now, two cities, Chattanooga, Tenn., and Wilson, N.C. have petitioned the FCC to overturn state laws blocking them from expanding their services to neighboring communities.
like asking xfinity/comcast to let rp be one fam/unit.. we’re missing the commons because not all are allowed in for the common ing
what we need – bravery for 1 yr to try commons et al
energy\ness
let’s do this first: free art-ists.
a nother way
ie: hosting life bits via self talk as data
be you.
