How times change!
The problem with this statement is that it implies that the lefties go about things in a somewhat reasoned predictable way (i.e.; reaching a paradigm on this issue and as a group re-assessing their stance).
In truth, this is just another insane idea that flew into someone’s head and in Brezerkly, anything counter-intuitive must be correct. Therefore, no wood burning fireplaces.
Good Mother Earth News point!
Don't expect consistency from this crowd though, they are at heart perverse contrarions, determined to destroy every tradition, every established and settled truth, that they can.
The only thing that works, quickly and every time, to show a leftist stooge the error of its ways is -ironically- a piece of firewood.
I'll leave you to imagine the details regarding precisely how the firewood is employed...
I remember that too, and remember the acid smoke in the air when I took the dog for a walk on a cold winter night.
I hadn't smelled that oder since the 1950s when growing up in Pittsburgh the acid smoke from all the coal furnaces in the houses burnt my nose on the way to school in the mornings. A suburban neighboorhood with lots of wood burning fireplaces smelled the same to me.
It amazed me that the Greenies pushed wood burners, but they did. I never put one in my house --- too damn dirty and too much work. But now that fireplaces are in, the Greenies want them out. Typical.
