Bridge to "nowhere"
by Timothy Droke

Isn't it funny that when the money for a capitol project isn't
being spent in your area it's called "pork". The bridge
was promised to the residents of Ketchikan when the airport was
built, so wouldn't it be nice if the Fed's kept at least one
promise?
The issue of graves is something
that is covered by law and is nothing but an emotional argument
that is understandable and a futile attempt to persuade people
who may not have made up their mind.
I am living in the lower 48
at this time but will be moving back to Ketchikan real soon and
I look forward to the opportunity the bridge will offer in economic
development and low priced land for all residents. This is one
Tlingit who stands with the "white people" on this
project!
