Excellent article, Knute. I was just a tot when Bobo died but did have the chance to go see him at the zoo. My grandmother took me and my brother there a few times a year and he was her favorite. Later, we used to go see him at MOHI ...

I totally forgot the most important question (according to the author). It's found in the sub-head "Does Seattle know what's important?" Ughhhh Two independent private groups want to initiate project within city limits and the author asks "Does Seattle know what's important". Ridiculous.

i have criticized Judy Lightfoot for writing articles like this. Was she involved in writing this piece or is the tendency to pose a bunch of unanswered questions and pass this off as journalism something the publisher condones, encourages and/or enforces?

Judy, You are an excellent teacher, so my brother says. I certainly take him at his word. However, this publication and you, yourself, seem to confuse asking open-ended questions as reporting the news. It seems every time I come to this site, the headlines are some inane open question regarding ...

This is my letter to the editor regarding this piece. ---------------------------------------------------- I've recently run into energetic criticism of the tunnel project downtown. Having long a...ppreciated the curious nature of well-funded political initiatives in the region, I've become more attuned to the quality of the arguments being thrown around. Today I ...

Planning Growth or Throwing Marshmallows to Hungry Developers: This article was rather shrill which makes me question whether I'm being misled. Upon reflection, the arguments seem pretty flawed. The Puget Sound region has been designed around highways, strip malls, and the whims of developers. This leads to higher growth in ...
