What Kind Of Conversation Does Mt. Lebanon Need?

Does it need nothing beyond the “everything is great, only positive and forward-thinking news to report” style of conversation? Or does it need something more? Is there a place for honest conversation, that which informed and educated people expect in a town that holds itself to high standards? Is it so bad that sometimes this honesty shines a light on unpleasant truths about the town, its government, and its residents? If we are afraid to shine a light on these things, how can we expect to fix them?

At Blog-Lebo, we are trying to shine light on the good, the bad, and, yes, sometimes even the ugly about Mt. Lebanon. Can Mt. Lebanon handle the truth? We think that it can.

UPDATE: I agree with everything Joe has written here. —Tom
