			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>HugeassCity&#8217;s Dan Bertolet on Publicola,</strong> <a  href="http://www.publicola.net/2010/07/12/lets-get-one-thing-straight-the-tunnel-is-not-the-green-alternative/">riffing on</a> our <a  href="http://bikeintelligencer.com/2010/07/richard-conlin-interview-part-1-deep-bore-tunnel-is-green-solution/">two-part interview</a> with Seattle City Council President Richard Conlin: &#8220;Let&#8217;s Get One Thing Straight: The Tunnel is Not the &#8216;Green Alternative&#8217;.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>On Horsesass.org,</strong> Goldy <a href=" http://horsesass.org/?p=28289">recaps</a> his typically quixotic opposition: &#8220;Where there&#8217;s a will, there&#8217;s a Seattle way.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>On Crosscut, </strong>Skip Berger <a  href="http://crosscut.com/2010/07/12/mossback/19967/How-to-prevent-a-boondoggle,-on-the-waterfront-and-beyond/">suggests</a> (along the lines of) mortgaging Council members&#8217; homes as collateral against wrong and costly decision-making: &#8220;How to prevent a boondoggle, on the waterfront and beyond.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>The Seattle Times, following up</strong> on a <a  href="http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2012341829_tunnelcost13m.html">Page 1 feature</a>, &#8220;Hidden challenges of Highway 99 tunnel,&#8221; <a  href="http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2012349259_tunnel14m.html">reports</a>: &#8220;Highway 99 tunnel foes may propose city referendum.&#8221; Curiously, only <em>The Times</em> seems to be calling this the Highway 99 tunnel, and even at that only recently. It&#8217;s better known as the Deep-Bore Tunnel project, in part because Highway 99 already has a tunnel (better known as the Battery Street tunnel). Although we assume <em>The Times</em> has a reason, we&#8217;ve found no explanation as to why they&#8217;ve adopted this puzzling, and confusing, convention.</p>
