I have read and seen many opinions about the efforts to allow Reston to become a town.Having grownup here (yes, if you can believe it), I have seen the evolution of Reston from a small concept 'place'--the original tag phrase was, "A place called Reston"--to the urbanized destination that it is today.  I consider my self a Restonian, through and through.Honestly, I am not so sure where I stand on this issue.  I would love to see some dialog both for and against the proposals.  So much of our information is filtered through the media and their definition of newsworthiness.  If you have some information you would like to share about why this is a good, or bad, thing, I invite you to share. 01/10/2008
