The former Lt. Governor Fran Ulmer undertook a systematic job of overhauling the state’s electronic distance communications between its public servants and its public. This means it is possible to communicate by web interface E-mail to the Governor’s office as well as through traditional analogue means.

Our Dear Governor,
I write today, with what I think is a pretty good Idea.
I just got through watching the evening news, and was angered over the Exxon repersenitive, who said that the gas piprline is not financial vaiable for them. We our still waiting to receive the court ordered payment from them for their huge spill years ago.
I suggest, we cut all these fat cat oil companies out of the deal, and build it ourselfs. Use the PFD fund to build the line, and then put the money back in the fund with the profits. You can have the citizens vote on it, if you have too. It’s just a suggestion. I think you are doing a great job for the state. Thanks M P. S. Anchorge

Hi. I’m going to let Governor Palin know on her webpage that you wished to write to her. The actual link to her E-mail is in the post, but I will make it clearer. Web logs and the Internet in general are not as easy to use as the more experienced think. It’s really difficult to write for the Internet so the software knows what to do and the human knows what to do. Computers are really stupid whereas people aren’t.
(I only wish I had the Governor’s ear for science, technology, elders, health, safety, environment in the Unorganized Borough).

Dear Governor,
I am writing this letter because I want to express my feelings on the condition of our roads here in Anchorage. The main roads I am talking about are the ones further up the slopes were most people live. These roads are constantly iceing over during the winter and it is a hastle for the plows to have to go over them twice a day I think getting some of them paid will help with plowing issues in a way that will help them to get less ice. I hope you think about this letter!
I think the Gov. Is a very vindictive person. She is showing her dislike for the people of Juneau by not giving financial relief to us due to the disaster of our transmision line
I am sure you’re hearing of the unsatisfied residents of Juneau in regards to your lack of help for us. Why are you not doing more? Why aren’t you in Juneau, where the problem is, and coming up with a resolution??? We all voted for you for a reason, and now feel you’ve turned you backs on us. Would it make a difference if you had family living here? Would that change your mind about getting disaster relief?
Can’t guarantee that the Governor reads this blog, but everyone’s concerns will be shared here. (the link to email the Governor directly is included above. With a phone card from ATT/Sam’s Club, it now costs 5 times (500% more) to telephone than to telephone the governor of New Mexico)
Electricity rates for Juneau and some parts of the Unorganized Borough are here–

Energy use and waste is a problem for the entire state, but there is no statewide effort at self-sufficiency and sustainability. Based on history, a new gas-line won’t help but a few. Maybe that is why the energy czar for the governor is looking for local untapped energy sources for off-road communities rather than a communitas or commonweal solution. That, at least, is the stated intent of the recent public meetings but a broader view is reported here, Web posted Sunday, May 11, 2008 State kicks off energy plan work By Tim Bradner Alaska Journal of Commerce

Thanks again you have my vote and support for the your other 6 years of governor.
