Happy Fourth of July!









Today, as we celebrate the founding of our nation 231 years ago, I thought the following quotation from Thomas Jefferson was particularly appropriate both to honor our national holiday and to describe our particular mission here at StadiumFacts.org.

As Jefferson wrote in a letter in 1789,

Whenever the people are well informed, they can be trusted with their own government; that whenever things get so far wrong as to attract their notice, they may be relied on to set them to rights.

And here at Stadium Facts, we share Jefferson's confidence. We believe that once citizens of the community are well-informed about the stadium proposal, we can rely on them to set the Santa Clara City Council to rights.

Best wishes for a Happy Fourth of July!
