Seattle Times: Seattle arts patron Bagley Wright dies at 87
Seattle has many words for rain. I encourage all of you to utilize the Beaufort Rain Scale where at any time the term to use could be Force 1: Scotch Mist; Presence of wet in the air, hovering rather than falling. You can feel damp on your face. But if you supinate your hand, nothing lands on it. Associated Phrase: "I think it's trying to rain." (P.Meek)

Seattle Times: Seattle arts patron Bagley Wright dies at 87
Artsfund, Seattle Arts Museum, the Reparatory Theater, Space Needle and World's Fair; keep in mind that it isn't always a matter of wealth but a vision of what you want your community to be. Seattle was fortunate to have someone that possessed both wealth and vision.
