Small towns and counties need to be educated on the rules and outcomes in muniworld. The town I was raised in floated an issue of munis for several parking garages and, until they got "educated" had no problem or a feeling for the downside of defaulting on the issue. Luckily a local broker was on the advisory board and managed to inform them as to how they would have a hard time ever getting an issue to float again. As I tweeted earlier, thanks for sharing.
