We absolutely can.  The question is, will we?  The feds are a basket
case (both the FCC and Congress) and we can't anticipate any help from
them.  I have come to the conclusion that only by continuing to let
our local elected officials know how important it is will we generate
the political will necessary to make it happen.

Follow http://www.portlandfiber.com/ and write to the Portland City Council.
