Old News.

What I would like to see them report on is the current mining and the damage that it is doing.  The mining laws need to be updated.

Gotta die sometime. Why not today? ;) >:D
I'm ready.

Safety is an illusion. Always has been.

True, there are a few bivies up in the sierras where I've had to deposit toxic materials. Usually, due to Mungie's cooking.
