One of my favorite summer events is a local steam tractor show. The air positively wreaks of incomplete coal combustion. Add to that the ubiquitous horse manure, and you have a pretty close facsimile to city life 150 years ago. The only things missing are animal carcasses, and open sewers and outhouses.
I find the show almost as refreshing as getting back to the clean air of 2021.
Stop griping people. We have it good.

That reminds me, my family reunion is coming up.
