Children there had dangerous serum lead levels. Many of the products we take for granted come with awful hidden costs.<br /><br />Demeur, I think your idea for depositing fly ash in petered out mines is a good one. Even though different kinds of mining are done now, don't forget that mining regions are chock full of old abandoned mines that could be used.S.W.

If they don't have a contract on his life I'd be surprised.<br /><br />Billy you're lucky your exposures to Bunker Hill didn't kill you. The levels of arsenic there were so high our clean up workers had to be bussed in moon suits to clean up the site. The land there is contaminated for miles. It is still a superfund site. My recertification instructor worked there so I have his firsthand knowledge.Demeurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01935263659097273535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2171776489221716830.post-57594373255527968402010-10-18T16:00:32.020-07:002010-10-18T16:00:32.020-07:00Mad Mike is a babbling fool, just another idiot Am...Mad Mike is a babbling fool, just another idiot American.BBChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15323188240580782454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2171776489221716830.post-77055925349187193112010-10-18T15:59:14.040-07:002010-10-18T15:59:14.040-07:00Remember the Bunker Hill mine outside of Kellogg, ...Remember the Bunker Hill mine outside of Kellogg, Idaho?<br /><br />Spent much of my youth growing up around it. There was a big mountain of slag there back in those days, I would say that it covered more than few hundred acres. <br /><br />I don't know how nasty it was but it was used on the roads every winter and provided good traction. <br /><br />After the mine closed the area become a super fund site, I don't know if it's been all cleaned up by now or not. <br /><br />Anyway, I and many others lived through all that nasty shit on the ground and in the air and water and many of us are still here. <br /><br />I even worked in the smelter for about a week and a half after getting out of the Navy, but it was too nasty a place for me to want to stay in.BBChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15323188240580782454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2171776489221716830.post-80364540122811065812010-10-18T12:11:17.397-07:002010-10-18T12:11:17.397-07:00I'm probably being nosy, but how'd you get...I'm probably being nosy, but how'd you get banned from MMA? That site used to be one of my regular visits, but I haven't been there for awhile.<br /><br />It seemed like they were trying to become one of the "big" blogs, but the last few times I went there it seemed more and more self contained; most of the comments seemed to be MMA contributors commenting at each other's posts.<br /><br />I used to have MMA linked at my blog and my blog was linked at MMA. Then a few months ago I saw that my site wasn't linked there any more, so I deleted the MMA link at my site and haven't been back there since then.Tom Harperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05610417770240609022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2171776489221716830.post-63891934371881414592010-10-18T11:47:07.471-07:002010-10-18T11:47:07.471-07:00My daughter is taking a Geography degree and seems...My daughter is taking a Geography degree and seems destined to head towards enviromental issues once she's gained the degree.<br /><br />I'll ask her to translate this for me...;-)<br /><br />...I've been banned from MMA by the way, so I'm back to my own blog - and about time too!
