Asbestos devastates Montana town.

[KRonn]

I shudder to think when I remember in my youth in Ukraine, we had a couple of asbestos sheets stored in our apartment for someone to pick up.  That was in 1990ies.  For some time I couldn't grasp why in America those pretty white sheets were considered a scourge.  When I did grasp, I couldn't grasp how in Soviet Union it wasn't considered a scourge even in 1990ies.

Recently there was a news story on Kazakhstan I think it was. A town there was dependent on the local asbestos mine, still mining the stuff and still a market for it.

This is why I'm the Arbiter and you're not.

Because you have white trash tastes?

[Ideologue]

Because I am a fair and impartial judge.  Look at you with your preconceptions.

Yes, I freely admit to my preconceptions whereas you pretend to have none.
