Plain Dealer - Quiet Crisis Part Deux
Sunday, December 7th, 2008Where will the PD take this new interest in public discourse? The beginnings for “Quiet Crisis - Part Deux” are being laid and it would appear to be much different than its counterpart from a few years back. My one desire is that the paper not only shed light on BIG ideas, rather; highlight the baby steps that are being taken today to solve regional problems of great significance.
One article today discussed “regionalism” but once again only focused on Cuyahoga County. Regionalism is much bigger than Cuyahoga County and needs to involve our equal partners in Akron, Lorain, Medina, Youngstown, etc. Each mini-region brings its own assets to the table and is part of a comprehensive economy.
So, thoughts on where this series is going and in what ways the residents of this region can drive the dialogue? Submit a letter here.
