Vice President Biden is visiting Renton Technical College.

Here's the latest pool report from his visit, courtesy of Jim Brunner of the Seattle Times:

Vice President Biden entered a Renton Technical College machine shop shortly after 10:30 a.m., accompanied by U.S. Sens Maria Cantwell and Patty Murray, and college president Steve Hanson. 
The group toured the shop floor full of lathes. VP spoke with instructor Henry Hatem and then to a student, Sean Journot. With the press pool gaggle close by, Biden joked to Journot "Don't pay attention" and said it's "intimidating" with "everyone in the whole state looking at you."
 Entering an adjacent room, the Vice President spoke with school alum and instructor Adam Pohlman for several minutes. 
"What are  you gonna show me? As long as you don't test me," the Vice President said.
 Pohlman showed off a fabricator of some sort, paid for with federal grant dollars. He said he was in construction but had to retrain and switch careers when the recession hit. The Vice President looked interested and held what looked like a model framework of a geodesic dome and a piece of metal the machine used. Pohlman also showed off a printout of the computer code used to run the machine. 
Biden looked at the code, impressed. "I can't pretend I understand this," he said. 
The Vice President did not operate any heavy machinery. Press pool now awaiting Vice President's remarks in another building on the campus.
