More likely set by lightning. Anyway, I’ve been to New Delhi and Beijing and was in LA in the early 70’s, burning eyes and everything. That and NYC still couldn’t come close to how bad it is almost regularly in India and China. In fact, when I went out this morning to go to work, had an immediate flashback of an India trip just from the smell down here in the DC area. Amazing how smells trigger memories.
You’re not here. It is crazy here right now.
And I’ve been in the worst of the smoggy cities in India.
