IrishRob17 Posted November 21, 2022 Author Share Posted November 21, 2022 @RjayHow about that snow in South Bend at the game yesterday? I was there, it was incredible. Woke up this morning to about 10-12” of fresh powder out there this morning. Got a nice taste of deep winter this weekend, there were flakes of varying intensity pretty much the entire time from Thursday afternoon until this morning. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand PFOA at the Dupont facility in West Virginia was responsible for children being born with birth defects as well as farm run off that caused cows to bleed out. DuPont illegally dumped a few million tons of the stuff into the waterways there. When they lost the lawsuit all of that came out and the fact that they had a safer alternative but choose not to use it because it was more expensive. PFOA have been found in 90% of all life on the planet and there is no safe dosage for it. We're finally now starting to test for it in our water too.

It only got found out during discovery for that class action they lost. Same as what the chemical lobby did to keep toxic pesticides like chlorpyrifos legal for so long (Dow manufactured that and now that they've merged with DuPont, we can expect more toxic goodies from that unholy union.)

Dark Star Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 I guess I must not have paid attention enough, because I never saw any awesome snow piles from the recent lake effect system.
