I am puzzled. If a city such as San Jose can have the calendars of their elected officials on line and it doesn't cause a problem for them -- why is this being such a problem in Long Beach?
Arguments about security are valid -- but there is a way to deal with this problem (even though San Jose publishes calendars in advance). Either take out the address so people can't show up and stalk the official -- or publish the calendar after the fact -- as I do.
Bottom line is that because we are employed by the public don't you think people should know how we do our job?
