As promised, the first sampling of responses was printed in today's Inquirer, along with a note from Michael Nutter. Check them out on the Great Expecations Web site's Yo, Mike! page.
Citizens' voices will be featured throughout the summer, so keep the comments coming. (For those of you hoping to make it into print, I'd suggest that you stick to one topic, follow the 150-word limit, and include your name and neighborhood/town. That said, I don't choose which ones make the cut. I'm just offering tips based on past experience.)
