I watched most of the broadcast. I was worried that the negative would be louder but as pleasantly surprised. There was still a ton of misinformation but a handful of great speakers.

All in all I would be seriously surprised if the board seeks for an injunction. Based on tonight, that would appear to be an unwise way to go.

I was able to listen from about 8:00-present (9:30). I must say a greater percentage of those that spoke were "teacher-positive" during the time I watched. The loudest seemed to be "teacher-negative" (including calling out Steven & Michele for being "lazy" about negotiating), but it's clear almost all want the strike settled with contiuous negotiations (rather than taking Sundays off, etc.). There were a couple of well-placed torpedos aimed at the "acting" superintendant. Both were very relavant & respectful, but hit the target dead on. I do know also, most that addressed the situation advised/requested that an injunction not be used, and that differences be hammered out in the negotiating process NOW.
I'd like to hear from others who saw the entire broadcast & what their "take" was of it.
