The first great love of my life was a coal miner’s daughter from Parkersburg, I still have some of her ashes left, I should leave some there next time I pass through that way. Is this some sort of confession? Still has *some* left Implies that he’s been making cupcakes with them.

One of my sidebars is water resource management here in Florida and I've been in it up to my ears for many years. By extension I've learned a number of unsettling things about the issue, not just in Floriduh, but nationwide. Seems to me that rational thought would preclude the looming disaster that awaits. We are, collectively, committing suicide.
For example, a few years ago under the guidance of Governor Scott (now Senator) and at the behest of EPA, the state reviewed pollution concentration standards and by stroke of genius increased the allowable concentrations on quite a number of pollutants. The action included approximately a dozen carcinogens. They declined to establish a standard for dioxin. In case that doesn't ring a bell it's the active agent in, uh, Agent Orange....can't be interfering with the paper mills don't ya know!
EPA signed off on it without meaningful comment.
Phuoc Monsanto, Dow, and Washington DC is my kindest thought. With armed torpedoes up theirs.
We seem incapable of setting short term profit aside in favor of long term gain.
I am..........disturbed.

I have posted a review of the movie Dark Waters, in the Movie Forum here. It is the story of how Dupont Chemical dumped toxic pollutants into the streams, water table, and land fills around Parkersburg, West Virginia, which caused birth defects in babies, killed animals and pets, and caused various cancers in people. A class action suit finally evolved.
It is an interesting and disturbing movie.
L.W. They did it everywhere they operated. We still can't eat fish caught from the Shenandoah river thanks to Dupont and companies like them. https://www.washingtonpost.com/loca...c-c2e9-11e6-8422-eac61c0ef74d_story.html You gotta do something with that avatar, every time I glance at it I think it’s a childhood picture of Steelhead.

I finally got around to watching this movie
holy hell, I want to torch Dupont after watching it
I went thru Parkersburg a couple of years back and told my wife it was the most depressing run down place I'd been to in a long time. I chalked it up to Appalachia
now I know the reason why You've never been to the Four State Area where I live. Possibly THE most polluted spot in the country. Picher, Oklahoma. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picher,_Oklahoma "Picher is among a small number of locations in the world (such as Gilman, Colorado; Centralia, Pennsylvania; and Wittenoom, Western Australia) to be evacuated and declared uninhabitable due to environmental and health damage caused by the mines the town once serviced." Centralia, PA is the town that the video game Silent Hill is based on.

Is this some sort of confession? Still has *some* left Implies that he’s been making cupcakes with them. Nope, just had a small amount originally, there were lots of takers. I was kinda sorta planning to request those ashes be scattered with mine, but dang I already got my dog’s ashes lined up too. Seems like a lot of hassle for my son to deal with so I might scratch the whole deal and just prepay a cheap and quick incineration. Prob’ly the thought that counts anyway.

A beautiful remembrance. I know that when my dad passed away, my brother and I scattered his ashes on the Uncompahgre Plateau, because that is where he loved to be. I cannot go there without thinking of him.
