October 25, 2025Oct 25 At a time when it sometimes feel humans cant do anything good, this was a nice little story. As kids, my friends and I often played near the city waters on the Hudson, but no matter how young we were, it was clearly understood that the water was as dangerous as pure poison, and none of us would ever dream of letting even a drop of it get into our mouths. The thought of it ever getting cleaned up, even a little, was pure science fiction. Adults/grownups were simply too nasty/destructive to mother nature. Nice to see even a small ray of sunshine.

October 25, 2025Oct 25 I kind of feel sorry for the oysters😉 I'm thinking I won't be eating them raw on the half shell. Fried oyster Po-Boys are really good! Edit: On a positive note, yes hopefully they will help filter the water to some degree👍 Edited October 25, 2025Oct 25 by tdflightsim Tom MAKA = Make America Kind Again

When I was a kid, bored teachers looking to escape school took us on nearly endless trips to NY's Inwood park, where they would sit around and smoke while telling us kids to essentially go and get lost for a few hours. We of course fled the adult presence like freed prisoners and took off in every direction, walking for miles, climbing cliffs, doing dangerous and unsupervised stuff..... What I remember most was the tons and tons of clamshells scattered everywhere, remnants of the Indian presence that was gone long before we were even born. We are all connected.....
