Just wanted to take a moment to thank all of the vets out there on this 11th day, of the 11th month. To those who have served, those currently serving, and those who have given their lives, thank you.

Here’s and interesting post from Sierra Bullets in response to the last lead smelter in the US closing. As it turns out there’s more to the story than the usual suspects would have you believe, and the closure isn’t expected to be all that big of a deal.
