A novel by James Wells. A few weeks ago, I was speaking to a group of students at Western Washington University (Go Vikings! About what we all can do to protect our environment and climate. In the face of daunting challenges, it’s easy to give in to despair. I suggested that a key requirement was to apply delusional optimism. Nothing impossible has ever been achieved, I told them, without a healthy measure of delusional optimism. If that’s not delusional optimism, I don’t know what is. There’s not ju...

Straight Talk about Issues in Bellingham. Wednesday, June 5, 2013. Water Supply: Searching For Certainty In Uncertain Times. This two-day Symposium [May 30&31] was timely and pretty well attended - at least by those folks who believe the topic is important enough to pay attention. Here is the link to the announcement, agenda and speaker. And, here is John Stark's article. That appeared afterward in the Bellingham Herald. The discussions covered primary uses. And the big unknown, the In-Stream Flows.

Straight Talk about Issues in Bellingham. Monday, September 30, 2013. When Right Is Wrong. What's in a word? Multiple meanings, spellings, pronunciations, nuances. Right or Wrong,. Right or Left, etc. Right-wing politics -euphemistically called 'conservative- does not easily support change, especially so-called 'progressive' change.

Of the the six proposed Amendments; '. And other public officials.

Straight Talk about Issues in Bellingham. Wednesday, November 6, 2013. For some time, I've felt a declining joyousness about our local elections process and the growing obstacles that threaten it, but today's local results have helped reverse that trend. Even though about 5000 ballots remain to be counted and certification isn't until 1/26, I'm happy with the direction Whatcom County voters have taken, to wit:. 8226; All four progressive candidates for County Council lead by substantial margins. 8226; Ca...
