[Vision2020] the whole tea party thing

[Tom Hansen]

Come on, V-peeps.

Take a chill.

I thought y'all knew by now that Dan "The Area Man" Carscallen is not only
a regular poster/subscriber to the Viz, but one with a clever sense of
humor.

Regardless of how you feel about the Area Man . . . do you see any other
members of the city council willing to be a contributing member of the
Viz?
