SEQUIM — For three years running, he's tried to make city leaders see the light. And though it's too early to call Pat Clark victorious, he feels neither defeated nor frustrated. Clark, 59, a retired Teamsters Union negotiator, has been urging the Sequim City Council to adopt a "dark skies" resolution that, to his mind, could save the moon, the stars — and people's privacy and health. On Monday, some 37 months after Clark first addressed the Sequim City Council on the problem of light pollution, he gave the members a new 40-page report on the topic — and basked in the mild glow of city planner Joe Irvin's draft of a resolution that could help bring back black.

"It's a lot to read, I know, so take your time," Clark wrote on his report's cover sheet.

"It took time to lose the night sky, and it will take some time to take it back."

Another Obama style community organizer!
