Got some notes from folks awakened by helicopters: TV choppers covering this spill at Terminal 5. (Which part of the port is that, exactly, you ask? Here’s the official Port of Seattle directions.)

    There’s always a bit of irony going on when a helicopter is hovering over a “spil” when the helicopter itself is burning up several dozens gallons of fuel each hour and spewing the exhaust into the air.

    John,

    It might be less ironic, perhaps, if both ecological impacts could be quantified and compared to one another.

Sorry, comment time is over.
