In an amusing investigation of the men who really run Seattle, Crosscut took some time to ponder what the city would be like if Bill Gates and Paul Allen were in charge. Among the highlights: "That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard" becomes a catch phrase, apples are replaced as the state fruit, we get lots of free concerts from Bono, the Viaduct replacement becomes a submarine tunnel, and Ray Bradbury becomes the city librarian. We're not sure if this sounds awesome or terrifying. [Crosscut]
