It always frustrates me that the TCC Forums are always in the middle of the day, right when I can’t make ‘em.
Same here. I also notice that their donation page is not secured (Firefox users: note that the address bar doesn’t light up in blue (basic secure) or green (true secure), so it makes me really wonder…)
Hi Jessica,
Our page is routed through a secure server. I’ll follow up on your Firefox observations (not quite sure what’s going on there) but I want to assure you that donations are always processed offline and securely at TCC.
This is probably the form isn’t secure and the page that it sends the data to is.
While that is technically correct, the appearance is bad.
Yep. It’s always bugged me – there’s no way I can dive out of work in the middle of the day for an hour and a half (plus transit time).
I’ll be downtown tomorrow for a DECA conference. Might be able to stop in, but would probably stick out in my suit (required for conference)
It’s a fair criticism that we get about afternoon forums. We also get requests to do it only in the afternoon because that’s when a lot of people are able to attend. We are going to try and do a mix of afternoon and evening Friday Forums so that more people can attend.
There’s a reason that the people who are able to attend tend to be folks who get paid to work on political (or transit-specific) issues or are retirees who have the free time.
