- Somewhere on the fringes of our consciousness, we're aware that there is a place called West Seattle, which is where people live who don't mind being repeatedly screwed. That's why they won't be surprised to find out that the "low bridge" will keep opening during their commute.
- My Ballard commenters have theories--boy, do they have theories--about who's responsible for all those bike "carcasses" being left along the Burke-Gilman.
- Meanwhile, the Central District News has a theory of its own which involves
dinosaurs being thin at one end...whoops, wrong one...which involves Seattle U building a new stadium for its fancy-schmancy Division I basketball team. - Finally, CHS asks where all the light rail dirt is gonna go during construction as a clever segue to announcing the 90% design open house at SCCC tonight.

Part of the problem with the lower bridge opening during rush hour is that it prevents cyclists from being able to cross in or out of West Seattle. If you depend on your bike to get to work or school on time this pretty much ruins having a predicable commute. Somehow I suspect that when they said "there isn't enough traffic to warrant keeping the bridge available," they were counting only cars.
