:* [[File:Symbol confirmed.svg|16px]] The hook is interesting as it startled and intrigued me to learn that Snohomish County did not have an Executive until 1980, indicating they did not adopt a charter government until that late date. Fascinating! The hook is also of appropriate length and is cited to a RS (the [[Seattle Times]]). There is no image to review against. Both the hook and article are NPOV.
