I had to dig quite a ways to find the list of all the other former refueling sites, including in Spokane, that have been declared as federal environment cleanup sites, which perhaps is why I never read or heard anything about it from the Spokane news agencies. >From my perspective, the world only looks scary, evil and wrong when I consider all the things I *don't* know about, any of which could be true.
