Action Greensboro is hosting a forum on local government that appears to have all the makings of creating a good conversation.
All 250 seats are taken at the Empire Room, where it will be held.
Those who weren't able to make it can still find a way to get a good shot of the action by viewing it online here.
Here's a primer of some topics of conversation expected tonight:
The council-manager form of government, and how the elected officials, managers and staff work in that system.
Increasing the cooperation between the cities and county, which has had a spotty history here.
Roles of media and the citizens in the government.
This should be an interesting forum. We'll be there, and will have something online as soon as we get back. And we hope to Twitter the event. Action Greensboro will, too.
Meanwhile, our fearless editor is taking bets on how many elected folks will show up.
Not all of the newspaper's content appears online.
