Memories from a plague year
Mon, 01/11/2021
By Jean Godden
With 2020 departed and nothing left but dismal memories, it seems appropriate to try to reconstruct for future generations what it meant to live through a year rife with life-threatening illness and untimely deaths.
The idea of somehow memorializing our lost year got me thinking about time capsules, a way that our ancestors communicated with future generations to show how they once had lived. The oldest known example in the United States dates from 1795 when someone likely Sam Adams and Paul Revere buried a capsule at the Massachusetts State Capitol in Boston. It has since been exhumed, its fragile contents documented and the capsule reburied with additions.
LETTER: The City of Seattle STILL needs a plan to replace the bridge

West Seattle Bridge repairs may or may not work. The Port of Seattle, City of Seattle, and Sound Transit need to plan for a replacement.
Gothenburg, Sweden is the largest port in Scandinavia. Last week the city opened its second immersed tube tunnel, the Marieholm Tunnel. Gothenburg’s first immersed tube tunnel, the Tingstad Tunnel, was built in 1968. Together these tunnels can carry a total of 180,000 vehicles/day with little impact on the river and its riverbanks.
The Marieholm Tunnel is six lanes, crosses a 1,000-foot wide river, and cost €170 million ($225 million).
