[sllug-members]: UTOPIA -- UtahNOW guest list

Please check to see if Bryant Anderson of the Sandy City council would
come.
Bryant was open to discussion when a group of us met with Sandy City a
week ago. He works for L3 (on their high speed military communication
systems satelite up/down links) and understands well that anything short
of fiber will not provide the best solution. He is just not sure what
the most economical way to develop the infrastructure would be.

BTW - I'm sure most politicians would be happy to get what they see as
free air time to get their faces shown. I don't think you will have a
problem getting most any of them to appear. :-)

Obviously they couldn't all come, but an appropriate selection from those groups sounds good to me.
