@artmyoldfriend It's not just the immediate area of East Palestine that will be affected, either. This stuff is already in the water system and will carry all the way down to the Mississippi river. At least 12 states will have water supplies tainted just from that, not counting the spread from the burn smoke and rain.
I live two states away and am still close enough to be affected. The magnitude of the damage done, and still being allowed to be done, can't be understated.
