To the Beachcomber: Vashon is now well on its way to readiness for a natural disaster thanks to the long-time work of Be Prepared and now the publication of its well-done brochure. And what about economic disaster? Ask which is the more likely to occur within say the next two years, the Big One or collapse of the US economy? Think about that. The earthquake operates on probability, but the US economy is a serial cliff-hanger. How do you like the latest episode in which the Government propped up the General Motors corporate logo and kicked the auto workers into the gutter? Right, and has Vashon taken a single step toward self-sufficiency? Right. We could have retrofit K2 for making self-sustaining products but we blew it. But we love our commute. With many well–deserved cheers for our hard working Transportation Committee, what we really need is a Transition Committee.
