    Irenen sure cleansed the environment

    The air in NYC has been very, very fresh and clean ever since. Guess the rain rinsed away all the dirt and grime on everything and in the air, and the wind dried everything "Daisy Fresh!" Pity such a cleansing does so much damage in other places. Sigh.

    Plus, the moon was looking very, very clear and detailed last week. If only the jerky landlord hadn't closed the roof to us...must been some very good "seeing" nights.

    Wish we could make a non-destructive artificial hurricane with wich to periodically cleanse the environment.
    If it's a war on drugs, then free the POW's.

    I know the feeling—it's raining here today for the first time in months. While rain in September is uncommon, dry weather throughout the summer is normal for SoCal, as are the morans who forget how to drive in the rain during the intervening months. I had to drive the XYL into work today and the amount of stoopid on the road was astonishing.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    You'd be surprised. The air is as polluted as ever.
    I keep my 2 feet on the ground, and my head in the twilight zone.

    Go talk to NH. Actually the air north is generally cleaner than most of NYC. Lots of trees and green space is what cleans it. The dangerous pollution is what you cannot see.

    Irene just passed us here in the netherlands as depresion, lots of rain, wind gusts op to 60 miles an hour.
    Expecting a few nice days in the weekend, then the next one cruising for your coast will hit us...
