And the LA area has the cleanest air since the 1800s

I cannot imagine how bad the LA pollution must have been in the 1800s!
Holy Moley!

The 70s were the worst I can remember. When I moved to California the
first time..I was coming out of a job in Wyoming..and when we hit
Riverside on the 10...I noticed the air was turning brown..and
browner..and browner....and was wondering what was burning and where.

Then it got chewie. When we reached Anaheim headquarters..it was like
being down wind of a smelting plant.

Now there is only the faintest hint of color in the otherwise blue
skies

One bleeding-heart type asked me in a recent interview if I did not
agree that "violence begets violence." I told him that it is my
earnest endeavor to see that it does. I would like very much to ensure
- and in some cases I have - that any man who offers violence to his
fellow citizen begets a whole lot more in return than he can enjoy.
