By the way, the hangars and maintenance facilities at Sea-Tac are currently being used for their intended purposes: sheltering and servicing aircraft. They do that at airports.

Sea-Tac is a busy, active airport, one of the major U. S. jumping-off points for commercial airliners for Asia and other parts of the world. My sister's husband was a pilot (recently retired) for Northwest Airlines. He flew in and out of Sea-Tac all the time.

I've been all over that place. "Shackle-rings?" Not inside the hangars. There ARE what those with vivid imaginations might consider "shackle-rings" in some outside parking areas. They're for the purpose of tying down small private planes in case of wind, which we get a lot of around here, especially this time of year.

Now--how about the Woodland Park Zoo?
