summer spring war
Quickly capping 363 oil well fires in a war zone is impossible. The fires would burn out of control until they put themselves out... The resulting soot might well stretch over all of South Asia... It could be carried around the world... [and] the consequences could be dire. Beneath such a pall sunlight would be dimmed, temperatures lowered and droughts more frequent.

summer country sorry
Suddenly, in the space of a moment, I realized what it was that I loved about Britain--which is to say, all of it.
