This post is from from my other blog here

..., and particularly about one of our hot-button issues (full-spectrum no child left behind), but he didn't take the bait...maybe it was the forum, being a purely Northern Virginia Political Blog, and not so focused on local issues outside of politics, immigration and transportation.

We've contacted our own local politicians on several education issues, before and after the election by email; (blog corrected 12/14) we have gotten replies by email (see this response from Mr. Dupree), but most of the House, Senate and local reps didn't seem to want to respond to questions raised here in the blog (because it's probably not visible enough!). John Stevens (Potomac) seems to be the only truly active online entity in this Government 2.0 arena.

Therefore, we issue an open call here for a Dulles "Live Blog" session on Education. We'll promote it, manage it and host it....who's in? Contact us by next Friday, and we'll arrange the details.
