I don't think cities or towns have either the money to invest nor the knowhow to administer such a thing. I think it would likely have to be investor-led, preferably wealthy technologists, who would then shop it around to local governments.

Hmm. That may be right. But I think something real is here, especially now that I've added in the teaching factor.

Do you know anyone who'd be able to look at this idea as a potential principal? My email is michael.o.church at gmail.

Tony Hsieh might be a good fit given his vision with Downtown Project (http://downtownproject.com/).
