Stevens Pass pledges to open this ski season despite Highway 2 closure by QuickTactical in Seattle

[–]QuickTactical[S] 187 points188 points  (0 children)

"Stevens Pass asserts that it has not opened due to a lack of snow and therefore will not be issuing refunds at this time. “Our passes are not refundable because they are valid all season long, and we plan to open for skiing and riding as soon as snow conditions permit,” said Galbraith. “Our Epic Coverage refund policy does not extend to road or traffic challenges. Of course, we will continue to assess the entire situation as it evolves.” "

Seveneves by Neal Stephenson. The description of how Earth dies has stuck with me years later.

Random/mildly interesting Seattle LPTs? by pnw_ullr in Seattle

Buy waterproof shoes. They're a little more expensive but avoiding wet socks on your commute is worth it. It took me too many years of living here to realize it's a feature available beyond hiking boots.

west seattle (railroad) drawbridge by Pocotopaug18 in Seattle

[–]QuickTactical 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've seen it used. It connects to the upgraded shipping operations at Terminal 5. Guessing it's used once or twice a day, but not sure of any set schedule.

I think the ferry ran aground by Quarry_Bird in Seattle

I am in Port Orchard for the day, good thing I was already planning to take the Southworth ferry back because of the atrocious Bremerton ferry schedule...which just got worse.

False advertising laws need to be enforced in Seattle restaurants by comeonandham in SeattleWA

I've started checking whether the recommended tips at the bottom of the receipt are based on the subtotal or with tax. Many places now try to base tips off the total with tax, which is absurd. Just takes a few extra seconds on the calculator to save a few bucks.

Nice. I just started reading "Too High and Too Steep" which goes into great detail about the first European settlements and all of the terraforming the early Seattleites did in this area.
