Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

Every time I can get on the interwebs, I read a website called phys.org, which has summaries of scientific papers from all fields. They are a lefty site, though an occasional honest climate paper gets through occasionally.
So a title caught my eye today:
Oil and gas air pollution linked to 91,000 early deaths in the US each year
And I clicked on it and read it.
Sure enough, the article claims that minority groups suffer most. My immediate reaction was to look for anything that pointed out that without oil and gas to make electrical power and power farm equipment, healthcare would be minimal, food would be scarce, and nobody could travel far or fast, and death rates would be huge. Sure, I want to live back in the 1700’s. /s
Sure enough, nothing of the sort was mentioned. Since I refuse to sign up to comment on that site, I’m venting here.
(I will point out that I have smog-induced asthma from a couple of decades of living in the LA area during bad smog years, when I can recall that ordinary breathing caused a cold pain down the center of my chest. I’d still rather have asthma than be dead from low-tech causes.)
Thank you for ‘listening.’

You are very clear sighted following the science. Good vent.
Was researching etouffe and gumbo recipes and came across this lovely Lady
Never heard of using greens in gumbo….sounds good though. Every restaurant NO has different takes and like the lady says it’s like fishing even in every restaurant. Even simple beans and rice across the state can vary so much.
Louisiana is an attitude and they don’t really care what you think…an admirable attitude.
The best is February and crayfish. You haven’t lived until you sit down to a heaping platter of crayfish.
thx, Monti
I haven’t been to Nawlins since late-90s but may be in that neighborhood upcoming
✝️ Lord, thank You for the day. Amen.
