Random Memorial for Monday 11/9/15

Gone but not forgotten:  the thought that Centralia was special.

Growing up in central PA as I did, *everybody* knew about the abandoned city with the fire underneath it ... and I assumed that it was uniquely situated.

UNTIL, that is, I learned that a part of St. Louis is ALSO on fire.  And, since it's now apparently a competition, St. Louis has raised the bar by having *their* fire rapidly approach a nuclear waste site.  To which I say ... my relatives have already left the area before they started glowing in the dark (although, some of these relatives were also in central PA back in '79 when TMI meant something completely different, so they may glow in the dark after all) AND to those friends left behind ... you will soon be able to say that "it smells like fall out" for reals!

Cities burning from underneath (and any people that still live there), when the fire hits the nuclear fan, so to speak ... you will (all) be missed!

IS IT TIME TO SAY GOODBYE TO ST LOUIS (UH-OH)?:
