14:20:39 <bhyland> Ellen Miller from the Sunlight Foundation spoke about the 5 year old, non-profit which is the "grand daddy of the online open government movement."  The foundation takes direction from Justice Louis Brandeis' philosophy that "Sunlight is said to be the best disinfectant."  Open government data dvocates and entrepreneurs included Tom Steinberg who described the power of proving simple information that benefits civic society.  Tom shined some sunlight on wastefu
