Hines v. Harriss

Dr. Dwight Hines' pro se complaint in Hines v. Harriss (reproduced in his comment to this blog's 1st post, below) illustrates how important it is for citizens to be involved in their government. We cannot simply "let George do it," where George is overwhelmed by a George Orwellian system of nondisclosure -- a veritable excuse factory, one which Vice Mayor Susan Burk says employs 350 people with a $45 million annual budget. As Thomas Jefferson said, "a public office is a public trust." We trust that public records will be more easily available in the future. What do y'all reckon?
