I saw those guys at The Gorge in ’83. 😀 Preface With the passage of time, the problems created for residents by Sea-Tac Airport get forgotten and this works to the advantage of The Port Of Seattle. Forget ever obtaining any justice, the passage of time prevents even understanding that any crimes have been committed.
And in today’s news: Des Moines building with two restaurants closed due to serious health hazards Port Package Problems A bit of background: We’ve tried and tried for a couple of years now to raise the alarm on the issue of mold in homes with Port Packages.

So we’ve passed a teensy milestone: 300 subscribers. Woohoo. I smell movie! 😀 OK, maybe not. But given the dry nature of the material stored here, I think we’re doing OK. More interesting is that we’ve had three days now with over 100 hits. Again, it’s a drip. But it’s a steady drip. What I
