hardly localRushing around the Seattle airport trying to find last-minute gifts, we were thrilled to find a well-stocked Border's Books. We were also rather tickled by one of their displays.

Seems like a good idea to offer a selection of local products to travelers. What better opportunity to pick up that last-minute souvenir?

And yet, when it came time to select local wares, Something Went Wrong.

I refer, of course, to the Ghirardelli Chocolate packages prominently displayed here. They are indeed local... to San Francisco, hundreds of miles south.

There have got to be other local products from Seattle, right? Coffee? Smoked salmon? Rain? (Kidding!)
