    Contrary to the Interlocal Agreement under which Kitsap County agreed to join the Puget Sound Regional Council (PSRC), and contrary to earlier policy drafts, PSRC has now made environmental concerns — real or imagined — the cornerstone of Vision 2040, the organization’s operating manifesto.

    By Joan Bay Klope • July 11, 2008 8:06 pm

    It was from the comfort of my front porch — where I sat in the sun, treasured library book in hand, iced coffee within reach — that I observed our rescued pet cat do the very thing I hate most: hunt. Although he spends the great majority of his life inside, the sun was so warm it beckoned even him away from his resting place on the back of a couch and over to the door, where he meowed and pawed at the screen until I finally gave in and let him out.

    Sustainment of the constitutional right of individuals to keep and bear arms got all the publicity last week, but there was another court decision on an equally controversial subject that affects every one of us. It wasn’t from the Supremes, but the federal appeals court in the District of Columbia which turned down a petition from 17 states, including Washington, asking for a decision from the Bush Administration within 60 days on whether greenhouse gases and global warming are a threat to public health and welfare.

    Irony can be pretty ironic sometimes.
