At 2am I still couldn't see more 50 feet in front of me because of all the damn firework smoke... Different strokes for Different folks I guess..
What I find shocking is the disconnect with the pro firework at home or in the street folk and the stats of burns, deaths and lost and injured animals. Some traditions stop being a good thing when the population reaches a certain level.
I remember one new year's eve spending the night in Kaumana after festivities and our lungs and sinuses were burning in the morning not to mention being kept up by firewords till dawn, and all I could think of was the senior citizens living in that neighborhood who it turns out were not doing well at all. How self-centered can humans get? Apparently there's no cap on that.
