1. Don’t let the Gore hit you on the way out

    Dear Al, did you think we wouldn’t hear about how you slammed Grist List at your little book signing?

  5. Cockpit. Heh heh.

    Recycling may take flight in a major way on a Seattle campus, with a student pavilion made from a 747. Forget the tray tables and seats in the upright position; this space is flexible enough to accommodate multiple positions. We’re just not sure you can still call it the mile-high club.
