Mooks:

My old backyard (heavilly relandscaped and covering over several brownfields not of the railroad's making...a good place for an asphalt cap). You might not want to be there on 26th Street after getting a good whiff of "Ski Bandini" or the Gould Battery recycling plant. Fortunately, the current roadmaster (Andrew) and his remaining troops are moving to out under the shadow of the tower at Pico Rivera.

Mudchicken Nothing is worth taking the risk of losing a life over. Come home tonight in the same condition that you left home this morning in. Safety begins with ME.... cinscocom-west

It has smelled somewhat better since Agrishell left and that lot was paved over. Another large tenant left (Interstate batteries?) A lot of empty space in the cities of Commerce/Vernon these days.
