Thanks. Ah, the Seven Hills of Seattle, one of the earlier attempts by our fair citizens to link us to the home of espresso in that Rome is, of course, known as the city built on seven hells. Unlike Rome's, which have a volcanic origin, our seven formed during the last ice age, when a several thousand foot thick tongue of ice rasped the landscape. Technically hills might be overstatement. The high points are more ridge-like, due to the ice traveling in a north-south direction. This flow pattern, in turn, created a phenomenon that Seattle bikers experience every day. It is harder to travel east/west in the city because you are biking up and down the north/south trending ridges and valleys, whereas when biking north/south you follow the path of the glacier. Does that make sense? Hope so. David Well, I do like to think of myself as a major geek. Thanks.
