The first Hollywood movie ever shot in Seattle was Tugboat Annie, which turned into a movie series and a TV show celebrating a woman tugboat captain. It was a smash hit. Annie was a salty, formidable woman who was able to constantly outsmart her rivals.
In this age of tech, we often forget that Seattle is a seaport.
Our self-image was forged on the waterfront, from ferries to fishing boats, schooners to container ships, we have a Puget Sound maritime heritage all our own.

In the United States in recent years, a kind of writing variously called nature writing or landscape writing has begun to receive critical attention, leading some to assume that this is a relatively new kind of work.
In fact, writing that takes into account the impact nature and place have on culture is one of the oldest - and perhaps most singular - threads in American writing.
Melville in Moby-Dick, Thoreau, of course, and novelists such as Willa Cather, John Steinbeck and William Faulkner come quickly to mind here, and more recently Peter Matthiessen, Wendell Berry, Wallace Stegner, and the poets W.S. Merwin, Amy Clampitt and Gary Snyder.
A Note to Readers
The “7 Ware Street” column does not appear in this issue, which is somewhat shorter than usual, given continuing constraints on our advertising partners. We decided it was important to make space available for more of your letters to the editor, of which there were many quite a few of them longer than we can usually accommodate. The column will reappear in the future.

As with solar, wind, and hydro, nuclear power plants produce no greenhouse-gas emissions. Moreover, new technology and designs continue to improve their economics and safety.
