He's been hitting the streets asking Franciscans their pet peeves with the city for months.</p> <p>The thing I found very interesting about them - not being too informed about Newsom - is his command of the issues when people bring them up. He wasn't just being open - and opening himself up to the criticisms of a tough town. He was also conversing <em>back</em>.</p> <p>I watched a few videos where he talked to people about the transit system, and was stunned with his attention to detail in things like citywide bus schedules and rider patterns. And not in a BS talking-point-y sort of way, but actually as a Mayor who seemingly can tell you anything you want to know about the buses.</p> <p><a href="http://www.actlocallysf.org/">ActLocallySF</a> is the site. Check out another office holder really hitting the streets and having conversations.</p> Tue, 21 Aug 2007 13:12:58 -0400 JeremyDThompson comment 1111 at http://www.techpresident.com
