    Hi Folks<br>
    <br>
    This town is going to get  fiber optic paid for by the state of 
    California before a town like Davis. <br>
    <br>
    There is  something wrong  about this. <br>
    <br>
    I hope the City is still interested, and will take the next weeks
    before  a February meeting to find out. <br>
    I have not heard anything about a broadband task force, has anyone
    else? <br>
    <br>
    So far my attempts to contact the cio about the matter have failed. 
    <br>
    <br>
    Let's have a meeting on Wed Feb 10th at 6:30pm, location TBD <br>
    to proceed from here, as a task force without being formally
    constituted. <br>
    <br>
    <br>
    <br>
    <br>
    Thanks <br>
    RAN<br>
    <br>
    <br>
    P.S.. Looks like an easy wire job in Johannesburg though right? <br>

                  application of Race Telecommunications Inc. (Race) for
                  its Five Mining Communities Underserved Broadband
                  Project (Five Mining Communities Project). The Five

                  1.55 square mile project area at a cost of $10,087 per

                  form of improved access to e-health services and
                  online educational and economic opportunities.  The
