Reason Saves Cleveland with Drew Carey, a Reason.tv original documentary series that proposes viable solutions to some of Cleveland's biggest problems, premiered in March 2010. The release made the front page (twice) of the Cleveland Plain Dealer and ruffled the feathers of at least one local writer.
The film also caught the attention of the Cleveland City Council, who invited Drew and Reason.tv's Nick Gillespie to Cleveland to discuss the ideas raised in the documentary.
This short video is a collection of highlights from Drew and Nick's 2.5 hour conversation with the Cleveland City Council on May 27.
Approximately 10 minutes. Produced, shot and edited by Paul Feine and Alex Manning.

Congratulations, you flew to Cleveland. What we all want to know, is, if you got the hell out on the same day?

Did the solutions involve strippers, bondage games, diet pills and guessing the price of dishwashing liquid?

Save Cleveland by moving this story everyday to the top page and then someone eventually will give a crap about Cleveland!

Pet rocks were a profitable fad in the 1970s. Maybe Drew Carey can lip-sync the song "Cleveland Rocks" as a commercial jingle for genuine rocks from Cleveland. If he can get enough people interested in them, the city can make some money that way.

I'm still stuck on the guy obsessed with sign regulations. It's extremely obvious the idea of dumping the regs is a totally alien concept to him.

I like the first few comments on the "Scene" site. They pretty much slam the writer for being shallow and vapid.
