Re: [MBZ] [Bulk] Test and possible move to WA
That is a fallacy! We do not have rain. There is a very high relative humidity most of the year that is not muggy, just sort of persistent. A true rain falls vertically from the sky in droplets that impact with a certain force. The precipitation here is more ambiguous, falling in all directions at once, while not of a size to be more than sneezing rain. There is less moisture that hits the ground here than in most any other city in the nation, except a few desert towns. It just dribbles it out over a much longer period of time. That is what people mistake for more rain. We like to tell outsiders about how much rain there is, because technically it is rain, to discourage them from moving here. Should that fail, we transport anarchist to disrupt the town if a large international stage presents itself.

Re: [MBZ] [Bulk] Test and possible move to WA
Casey is not making jest! Right here in Seattle, not a few weeks ago, we had a wild bear in the middle of a very high density part of urban neighborhoods go on a rampage and chase our police officers, who came out in force, up and down hills and between university buildings. It took extreme force to subdue the Ursine intruder. But due to the very nature of the breeding of the bears out here, out pitiful attempts to control the bear were inadequate and somebody had to tazer it to death. The black bears here are also VERY intelligent. The only way this bear could have made it from the less high density urban part of town it was spotted in a few days before, to close to downtown, a trek of tens of miles would have been by bicycle or motor scooter. Must have been russian trained. I myself will be heading out bear hunting at the end of the month to insure the security of my family. I expect to be able to render what little fat the poor bear has to lubricate Gump and maybe turn it into fuel. I am begining to think Casey is correct, best to stay safe in MN.

Re: [MBZ] [Bulk] Test and possible move to WA
You are trying to keep the evil side from discovering paradise, aren't you? When I was there in the 80s, my only warning was to disregard the blacks but watch out for the Injuns. Given that my son-in-law is black and hasn't tried to mug me, I think the Injuns are not a threat either. In fact, an Injun bought me a drink there because I was Coast Guard. I think he ran a fishin' boat. Ok, everyone into the Seattle pool.
