So the Juniper Ridge developers are 'willing' to come back to the negotiating table.

That's what I'm talking about.

Negotiation doesn't just mean you say yes to every demand: Les Schwab or Ray K. , you make a counter-demand, you let them threaten lawsuits and let them threaten walking away, and you calmly make a counter-proposal in your interest.

And so on.

Apparently, we finally have some adults in charge.
