. >> good evening, my name is nan clark i have never been to an ethics commission meeting and i think that you have a really hard job ahead of you and i like to speak to that just briefly. earlier tonight, in the meeting and i don't know who said it, which side they were on or even whether it came from you, it has been a long evening, it was something to the effect that the reason we have the brown act and the sunshine ordinance the california public records act is because government activity must be as transparent as possible. and i think that you found tonight and both of the cases that you have heard that the goment transparency is not very transparent. and whether we talk about it in terms of e-mails or we talk about it in terms of budget and finances, or we talk about what is happening in particular department or not happening. obviously, you face the task now ahead of you, of figuring out how government activity and it means government across the board for all of us, be transparent as possible. what my government is staying about me and what your government is saying about you,
