Here’s a story, filed Friday, by the Reuters news service that everyone in the Capitol will want to read:

“It would be easy for me to say that there’s a short window and give you a lot of arguments about that. Actually, the window is reasonably long for any project,” Browne told a luncheon audience in Anchorage.
