You live only a few miles from the Mon Valley which has three U.S. Steel facilities. The likely culprit is Clairton Works which is merely 5 miles east of you. They burn coal to make coke that is used to make steel. The burning of coal releases tons (literally) of sulfur dioxide which is what you're smelling.

Yeah, I gotta jump through VPN hoops to get access, I'm not paying them shit.

For the most part I might go to 1 game a season and watch a handful at a bar or a friend's house. This is down from going to a dozen games and watching nearly every single other one on TV 10 years ago.

The NHL simply hassled me out of being a fan.

It’s almost like Ford knew this would happen and did not care when they brought these here.

Tier 1 Mobility, the Ford backed company that now owns these is supposed to have an agreement with the city in their 5 year, exclusivity contract, wherein they are supposed to stay on top of these being parked where they shouldn’t, but now we can get to share in their responsibility without the payday.

It looks like you shared an AMP link. These should load faster, but AMP is controversial because of concerns over privacy and the Open Web.

Maybe check out the canonical page instead: https://www.wpxi.com/news/local/police-respond-shooting-bloomfield-gas-station/ARK4P3RH2JBZVEUYDBRKRU7YMQ/

That’s fair, well the hilarious commenter above me deserved the additional props. It’s an age-old personal practice that I write lol when I am actually lolling 😉 However, I understand that we wouldn’t want to run out of space on the internet and we should conserve our lols.
