Only in Seattle...

I'm sitting here in the Physics Library at the University of Washington and realizing that even if I couldn't look out the window and see the beautiful view of the evergreens against the backdrop of the Space Needle, I would still know that I was in Seattle.

How?

Well, I have been in plenty of libraries across America that say, "Only drinks in covered containers allowed."

But the sign here in Seattle says, "Drinks in covered, reusable containers only."

Only in Seattle! I have never been in a more green-conscious environment! (I like it.)
