From yesterday's Trib comes news that the Hooper Detox Center has resumed 24/7 service, thanks to the passage of the Multnomah County income tax measure. For a while there, badly inebriated folks were being left out on the sidewalks between the hours of 3 a.m. to 9 p.m. because, wouldn't you know it, street alcoholics and heroin addicts don't keep to an abbreviated schedule.

If you voted for the tax, you should feel very, very good about the restoration of full-time service over there.
