Flying from Salt Lake International Airport, Salt Lake City,
Utah over the Wasatch Mountain Range.
I got assigned an aisle seat, but I asked the couple from
Houston sitting next to me if I could have the window, they
kindly let me. I sat down all giddy because the window was
so clean... Then the wing de-icer guy came by and sprayed
a mist all over the window. Luckly, the plane moved fast enough
to wipe off most of the droplets.
De-icing the wings at the Salt Lake City International Airport.
Looking south from near Bountiful. The entire polluted Salt Lake Valley
is visible.
Give this cesspool of filth a few more weeks to brew a gooey soup
of cancer and death.
Then climb a mountain like Grandeur Peak, up to about 6,500 and you
will rise out of the chemicals,
careful though, your body will be shocked by the fresh air.
