  I was reading the Seattle Times today, which I don't do that often, when lo and behold, I notice an article about the little speck in Puget Sound on which I grew up, Marrowstone Island.
Marrowstone made the news because of the fight going on there between those who want PUD water piped in and those who want, well, less development and limited water supplies. I can't really agree with the conserve water faction. Would they really rather shower with cistern water and let the water table keep dropping?
Are they willing to harm their own quality of life and that of their neighbors to keep Marrowstone for themselves? I guess I just don't agree with restrictive zoning by proxy. But, having recently obtained a D.C. drivers' license, I don't think I'll be able to vote for water service, unfortunately.
