One other thing, as I think about it, Darrell, particularly in forums where the audience is questioning the candidates from the floor and especially if follow-up questions are allowed, the potential for "cross-examination" of particular candidates is clearly present. Having the best recording possible, including video of questioners where possible, will make for a better way of evaluating just how fairly the forum was moderated and more fully lay out whatever biases are being advanced in the questioning.

Tom,
Give a guy some time to respond! I'm not at the desk 24/7...
Our letter of invitation to the candidates didn't mention videotaping. I don't want to introduce a variable to them that they were not aware of in advance. Radio Free Moscow will be audio taping, though. I hope that satisfies your needs for documentation.
Here are the details you asked about:
10/17/07, noon, Washington Room, University Inn
Please RSVP to the Chamber at 882-1800.
See you there Tom!

Mr. Keim -
Unless I hear differently from you I will assume that video-taping of Wednesday's candidates forum is permitted and will proceed accordingly
Thank you for your concern in this matter.

Mr. Keim -
I sincerely appreciate your direct and immediate response, something that has been sorely missed from the Chamber of Commerce. It is most refreshing to know that the chamber will be responsive to the Moscow community. Thank you.
Two questions:
1) When and where will the CofC City Council Candidates Forum be conducted at the University Inn?
2) Is video-taping the forum permitted?
Thank you for your anticipated response.
Seeya round town, Moscow.
