[Metroblogging Seattle] Such as Lake Washington around Foster Island, judging from the bumper crop of white blobs I see from the 520 bridge. I'm pretty certain there's at least twice as many there this year as there was last year.
Some slightly related from Technorati and Google.
[Thelandofthefree.net] Vast Right Wing Attack Blog: January 2005: Yes, the spin machine is about to get back in to full bloom tomorrow as Kennedy, Kerry, Mcauliffe and others look for any problem to make it appear to be a failure of the whole election process. After all, America under George Bush cannot be great enough to have brought representative government to two countries can it?
[Slate.msn.com] Peer-to-Peer Politics - Should Howard Dean be a little bit afraid ...: But Dean is encouraging his supporters to use the Internet for something it's uniquely good at”connecting small groups of like-minded people and getting them to interact with each other. In addition to the Meetup.com gatherings (which grew out of a posting on the unofficial "Dean Nation" blog) that have been garnering press for Dean across the country, Dean supporters have organized themselves into unofficial groups such as a "Dean Media Team" that (among other things) is distilling Dean speeches into streaming, Internet-friendly sound bites and the "Dean Defense Forces" that organize letter-writing responses to negative articles in the press.

[Sarahlaughed.net] Dylan's lectionary blog: grid blog :: Advent 1 :: Seek: Personally, I always thought ” even when I was a kid looking at those bumper stickers (I was a precocious and obnoxious kid) ” that a claim like "I found Jesus!" makes it sound like Jesus had been lost behind a sofa cushion until somebody heard his muffled cries or did some long-overdue vacuuming and came across him.
[Cascadiascorecard.typepad.com] Cascadia Scorecard Weblog: Washington: Aluminum smelting consumes so much energy that some have gone so far as to call aluminum "congealed electricity." And electricity consumption has enormous environmental implications, perhaps moreso than for other forms of energy: most electricity in the U.S. comes from coal-fired power plants, which are the nation's most notorious polluters. Even if the electricity we consume here in the Northwest mostly comes from slightly more benign sources (hydro-electric dams), the more electricity we consume here, the less we export, and the more that gets generated from coal somewhere else.
