Seattle Police, or the Washington State Ferry system, or the FBI, or whatever shadowy anti-terrorist unit is in charge of this particular investigation hasn't contacted Seattlest at this time. They haven't asked us into the evidence room in the basement of some nondescript building and opened the box containing the suspicious device they found in a Seattle/Bainbridge ferry bathroom and asked us to identify it. We can identify it, however, and you probably can too if you ever smoked pot in a college dorm.

Washington State Ferries is cancelling free WiFi and attempting to convince us that they never actually offered free WiFi - That was a beta program..that lasted for a year. Starting next month, WSF will be charging for access to the internet. WiFi Networking News has more:

Oh no, oh no, the ferries are a top target for the terrorists! The No. 1 target, in fact. Well, the No. 1 target for maritime terrorism, which is kind of like saying Cupcake Royale is the No. 1 target for cupcake terrorism. Just as we don't buy that Bad Men would threaten our cupcake supply, we are similarly unconvinced that any maritime target is likely to be the subject of an attack. When we put on our terrorist hats* and think like a terrorist, it just doesn't make any sense to sink a boat. What are they gonna do, commandeer a ferry and crash it into the Space Needle?
