WEBVTT - Short Stuff: Centralia Coal Fire

0:00:04.120 --> 0:00:06.840
<v Speaker 1>Hey, you welcome to the short stuff. I'm Josh. There's Chuck.

0:00:07.280 --> 0:00:12.080
<v Speaker 1>We're Josh where Juck doesn't matter. And this is stuff

0:00:12.119 --> 0:00:15.880
<v Speaker 1>you should know? Is it short stuff? Yeah? Short stuff

0:00:15.880 --> 0:00:21.560
<v Speaker 1>you should know. Man, my mind, Chuck, You're right. No, Okay,

0:00:22.000 --> 0:00:27.440
<v Speaker 1>let's continue. Okay, we're talking about Centralia. Yeah, which we've

0:00:27.480 --> 0:00:29.000
<v Speaker 1>talked about before. I don't know if it was in

0:00:29.040 --> 0:00:33.960
<v Speaker 1>an Abandoned Places episode or I think that I don't

0:00:33.960 --> 0:00:35.760
<v Speaker 1>remember what else we would have talked about it in.

0:00:35.840 --> 0:00:38.839
<v Speaker 1>But we have definitely talked about it. Yeah, unless we

0:00:38.880 --> 0:00:43.240
<v Speaker 1>talked about Cole maybe, but um that that's the then

0:00:43.240 --> 0:00:48.960
<v Speaker 1>diagram of abandoned places and coal uh Sits Centralia, Pennsylvania,

0:00:50.080 --> 0:00:55.040
<v Speaker 1>the very smallest municipality in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and

0:00:55.160 --> 0:00:59.040
<v Speaker 1>it is a former mining community a couple of hours

0:00:59.120 --> 0:01:03.160
<v Speaker 1>northwest of phil Lee. That there was always a small town,

0:01:03.240 --> 0:01:05.600
<v Speaker 1>a small mining town it. I think it only had

0:01:05.640 --> 0:01:08.839
<v Speaker 1>about four hundred people there in the early nineteen sixties,

0:01:08.880 --> 0:01:11.960
<v Speaker 1>but now there are less than ten people for one

0:01:12.240 --> 0:01:17.199
<v Speaker 1>very scary reason. And what is that. Well, the scary

0:01:17.240 --> 0:01:20.440
<v Speaker 1>reason is that when you're walking around Centralia, the earth

0:01:20.520 --> 0:01:23.200
<v Speaker 1>may open up and swallow you into a fiery pit

0:01:23.319 --> 0:01:27.200
<v Speaker 1>at any given moment without anyone. Yeah, how's that good

0:01:27.200 --> 0:01:30.959
<v Speaker 1>way to say it? Thank you? Uh yeah, So what's

0:01:31.040 --> 0:01:36.120
<v Speaker 1>what happened, Well, we don't know exactly what happened. There's

0:01:36.160 --> 0:01:38.880
<v Speaker 1>a few different versions of this story that will go

0:01:38.920 --> 0:01:41.440
<v Speaker 1>over in a second, but the end result of each

0:01:41.520 --> 0:01:45.319
<v Speaker 1>of these stories is that in nineteen sixty two, there

0:01:45.560 --> 0:01:49.800
<v Speaker 1>is uh still burning from that year a coal seam

0:01:49.920 --> 0:01:58.000
<v Speaker 1>fire literally coal on fire underground under Centralia in the

0:01:58.040 --> 0:02:02.480
<v Speaker 1>surrounding area of Centralia, Pennsylvania, right, which is I mean,

0:02:02.520 --> 0:02:06.600
<v Speaker 1>that's a very alarming thing because I think any person

0:02:06.640 --> 0:02:08.799
<v Speaker 1>who hears that says, well, how would you put one

0:02:08.840 --> 0:02:12.480
<v Speaker 1>of those out? And the answer to that is, by

0:02:12.520 --> 0:02:15.280
<v Speaker 1>the time it's been burning for seventy years, you don't

0:02:15.760 --> 0:02:19.560
<v Speaker 1>burns itself out. And then an average reasonable person would

0:02:19.560 --> 0:02:22.880
<v Speaker 1>be like, wait, wait, well there's a lot of coal underground.

0:02:23.560 --> 0:02:26.640
<v Speaker 1>Can it just keep burning like indefinitely? And the answer

0:02:26.680 --> 0:02:31.519
<v Speaker 1>to that reasonable person is absolutely so. Uh. These seams

0:02:31.639 --> 0:02:35.760
<v Speaker 1>um are naturally occurring coal deposits. They're called seams in

0:02:35.800 --> 0:02:39.480
<v Speaker 1>the industry. Uh. They're sort of like veins that run

0:02:39.520 --> 0:02:42.720
<v Speaker 1>through the earth that are made of coal, and they

0:02:42.919 --> 0:02:45.120
<v Speaker 1>can It's it's not like this is a rare thing.

0:02:45.320 --> 0:02:49.280
<v Speaker 1>Coal seam fires happen a lot, and can happen all

0:02:49.280 --> 0:02:51.120
<v Speaker 1>over and do happen all over the world. I had

0:02:51.160 --> 0:02:53.560
<v Speaker 1>no idea. I mean, I've known about centrally as fire

0:02:53.639 --> 0:02:57.040
<v Speaker 1>for many, many years, but I had no idea that

0:02:57.080 --> 0:03:01.679
<v Speaker 1>this is a very common thing. It's very alarming. Really, Centralia,

0:03:01.919 --> 0:03:04.400
<v Speaker 1>what did I say? You said to Centralia? And you

0:03:04.400 --> 0:03:07.320
<v Speaker 1>don't want to anger those ten people. Uh, it's like

0:03:07.360 --> 0:03:12.919
<v Speaker 1>saying Nevada. Which way? Do they not like it? They say,

0:03:13.040 --> 0:03:16.960
<v Speaker 1>only people in Nevada call it Nevada? Okay, Yeah, everybody

0:03:16.960 --> 0:03:20.639
<v Speaker 1>else calls it Nevada. Really makes them mad. I don't

0:03:20.639 --> 0:03:22.240
<v Speaker 1>want to do that to the people of good people

0:03:22.240 --> 0:03:25.639
<v Speaker 1>of Centralia, altend of them. So I'm just gonna call

0:03:25.680 --> 0:03:30.360
<v Speaker 1>it c Town then to cover my basis. Yeah, okay,

0:03:31.440 --> 0:03:33.840
<v Speaker 1>because now if I if I just spend time thinking

0:03:33.840 --> 0:03:37.760
<v Speaker 1>about it, it'll just totally derail this whole episode. Let's

0:03:37.760 --> 0:03:40.600
<v Speaker 1>go back to coal seam fire. So they're very common,

0:03:40.640 --> 0:03:45.800
<v Speaker 1>Like you said, apparently in China, um something like, well,

0:03:45.840 --> 0:03:48.640
<v Speaker 1>there's a three thousand miles stretch of a coal mining

0:03:48.640 --> 0:03:51.920
<v Speaker 1>belt around China, and I guess at any given time,

0:03:51.960 --> 0:03:54.560
<v Speaker 1>a pretty decent proportion of it is on fire with

0:03:54.600 --> 0:03:58.120
<v Speaker 1>these coal seam fires, which is problematic. There's a town

0:03:58.160 --> 0:04:01.800
<v Speaker 1>in India called jahari H and it has had a

0:04:01.840 --> 0:04:05.040
<v Speaker 1>coal seam fire going on since nineteen eighteen and has

0:04:05.080 --> 0:04:08.360
<v Speaker 1>lost something like forty one million tons of coal to

0:04:08.520 --> 0:04:13.600
<v Speaker 1>this fire just up and smoke quite literally. Yeah. Uh,

0:04:14.480 --> 0:04:19.920
<v Speaker 1>obviously this happens more often if the miners didn't do

0:04:19.960 --> 0:04:22.520
<v Speaker 1>the right thing when they left. So like they're down

0:04:22.520 --> 0:04:24.960
<v Speaker 1>there mining and they've got these tunnels and you've got

0:04:25.040 --> 0:04:26.400
<v Speaker 1>to take care of that stuff when you leave. You

0:04:26.440 --> 0:04:27.880
<v Speaker 1>can't just say all right, we're out of here and

0:04:27.880 --> 0:04:31.320
<v Speaker 1>put the confishient sign out front. Well, unfortunately a lot

0:04:31.360 --> 0:04:34.599
<v Speaker 1>of mine owners have done that for a very long time. Yeah,

0:04:34.680 --> 0:04:39.520
<v Speaker 1>absolutely so. Um, if you don't have like the right supports,

0:04:40.279 --> 0:04:43.680
<v Speaker 1>uh to keep the ground from collapsing, that can be

0:04:43.760 --> 0:04:47.520
<v Speaker 1>a fire risk as well. Get a film in I

0:04:47.600 --> 0:04:51.400
<v Speaker 1>saw also chuck that. Um. There's this company that developed

0:04:52.360 --> 0:04:55.360
<v Speaker 1>what they call a cellular foam. It's actually a mixture

0:04:55.360 --> 0:04:57.920
<v Speaker 1>of Portland's cement and fly ash, which is a very

0:04:57.920 --> 0:05:00.120
<v Speaker 1>difficult ways to get rid of and so my their

0:05:00.200 --> 0:05:02.719
<v Speaker 1>stuff and it's a foam you can spray on whatever

0:05:02.800 --> 0:05:06.800
<v Speaker 1>coals left over um and it will prevent this fire

0:05:06.920 --> 0:05:10.240
<v Speaker 1>from these fires from catching, which is a really great thing.

0:05:10.960 --> 0:05:12.880
<v Speaker 1>And also it gets rid of like I said, that

0:05:12.960 --> 0:05:15.839
<v Speaker 1>fly waste or fly ash waste, that's that's tough to

0:05:16.120 --> 0:05:19.159
<v Speaker 1>um remediate on its own. So you're killing two birds

0:05:19.200 --> 0:05:21.320
<v Speaker 1>with one stone. But one of the reasons that you

0:05:21.360 --> 0:05:24.960
<v Speaker 1>would want to seal off whatever coal seam is left

0:05:25.000 --> 0:05:28.480
<v Speaker 1>after you abandon the mind is because it's not just

0:05:29.800 --> 0:05:34.080
<v Speaker 1>dipstick humans who set coal seam fires like they can

0:05:34.120 --> 0:05:37.360
<v Speaker 1>happen quite naturally too. And then because that's a very

0:05:37.400 --> 0:05:40.560
<v Speaker 1>tantalizing thing to say, I suggest, Chuck that we take

0:05:40.600 --> 0:05:51.240
<v Speaker 1>an am break right now. All right, let's do it

0:06:08.600 --> 0:06:12.159
<v Speaker 1>all right now? Is the payoff everybody. Coal seam fires

0:06:12.279 --> 0:06:17.920
<v Speaker 1>can start under natural circumstances, go, Chuck, Yeah, they are.

0:06:18.680 --> 0:06:22.480
<v Speaker 1>They can even spontaneously combust. Uh. And once they get going,

0:06:22.760 --> 0:06:26.280
<v Speaker 1>especially this anthracite coal, it is very very hard to

0:06:26.320 --> 0:06:30.800
<v Speaker 1>put out. Um produces a lot of heat, and that

0:06:30.800 --> 0:06:33.279
<v Speaker 1>that's self heat. It it just sort of is a

0:06:33.320 --> 0:06:36.400
<v Speaker 1>cyclical thing. It just sort of stays on fire. And

0:06:36.440 --> 0:06:39.080
<v Speaker 1>that's why when you're shipping coal, uh, it's you know,

0:06:39.120 --> 0:06:41.040
<v Speaker 1>it's dangerous to ship coal when they get all those

0:06:41.080 --> 0:06:46.840
<v Speaker 1>big steamerships. It's dangerous, yeah, because the the as the

0:06:46.880 --> 0:06:52.479
<v Speaker 1>coal oxidizes, I think Piet Pie write um inside the

0:06:52.560 --> 0:06:56.440
<v Speaker 1>coal as it oxidizes, it starts to heat up. So

0:06:56.480 --> 0:06:58.919
<v Speaker 1>the coal can heat up from inside out, and it

0:06:58.960 --> 0:07:01.919
<v Speaker 1>can get hot enough that it can actually self ignite

0:07:01.960 --> 0:07:05.720
<v Speaker 1>spontaneously combust like you were saying, So, imagine having like

0:07:05.800 --> 0:07:10.440
<v Speaker 1>a tanker ship full of coal and your sailor on

0:07:10.520 --> 0:07:14.280
<v Speaker 1>that ship, and you are fully aware that coal can

0:07:14.400 --> 0:07:18.880
<v Speaker 1>spontaneously ignite. Wouldn't you be nervous? That'd be a little

0:07:18.920 --> 0:07:21.600
<v Speaker 1>nerve breaking, especially because so you know that that ship

0:07:21.640 --> 0:07:24.320
<v Speaker 1>is on fire in San Diego, the Navy ship right now, right,

0:07:25.040 --> 0:07:28.040
<v Speaker 1>and they were saying that it's reaching temperatures of about

0:07:28.080 --> 0:07:32.080
<v Speaker 1>a thousand degrees fahrenheit and it was melting steel. It

0:07:32.200 --> 0:07:36.480
<v Speaker 1>was that hot. Well, friend, that coal seam fire in Centralia,

0:07:36.600 --> 0:07:42.000
<v Speaker 1>Did I say it right? Centralia? Man Um. It has

0:07:42.160 --> 0:07:47.120
<v Speaker 1>been shown to reach at least temperatures of fifty degrees

0:07:47.560 --> 0:07:52.120
<v Speaker 1>which is something like seven two degrees celsius. So if

0:07:52.120 --> 0:07:54.320
<v Speaker 1>that happened on your ship, it would definitely burn a

0:07:54.360 --> 0:07:56.280
<v Speaker 1>hole right through your ship and you would be sunk

0:07:56.360 --> 0:08:00.160
<v Speaker 1>down to Davy Jones locker. Yeah, so how this thing starts? Did?

0:08:00.160 --> 0:08:02.600
<v Speaker 1>There are a few different versions. Um, my money is

0:08:02.640 --> 0:08:07.640
<v Speaker 1>on probably the most popular version, which was on sixty

0:08:07.680 --> 0:08:12.680
<v Speaker 1>two they burned a landfill on purpose. This was something

0:08:12.720 --> 0:08:16.239
<v Speaker 1>that that you know, would happen regularly as you would

0:08:16.240 --> 0:08:20.600
<v Speaker 1>burn the trash literally and that this trash burn kind

0:08:20.600 --> 0:08:23.840
<v Speaker 1>of got into that coal seam and boom, there you

0:08:23.880 --> 0:08:27.120
<v Speaker 1>have it, and it started a fire that has never

0:08:27.200 --> 0:08:30.040
<v Speaker 1>been put out to this day. Um. Other versions of

0:08:30.040 --> 0:08:33.720
<v Speaker 1>the story was that it was another garbage fire and

0:08:33.760 --> 0:08:37.640
<v Speaker 1>not that one on let by a truck driver. Uh.

0:08:37.679 --> 0:08:40.920
<v Speaker 1>And then another one is that it started in the

0:08:41.000 --> 0:08:44.760
<v Speaker 1>nineteen thirties I think and has just been around, and

0:08:44.800 --> 0:08:47.800
<v Speaker 1>then in the nineteen sixties it was kind of noticed

0:08:47.840 --> 0:08:52.600
<v Speaker 1>for the first time. I like that one myself. Oh yeah, yeah.

0:08:52.640 --> 0:08:54.800
<v Speaker 1>The idea that it was kind of smoldering and then

0:08:54.840 --> 0:08:58.640
<v Speaker 1>all of a sudden, you know, maybe a flapper through

0:08:58.679 --> 0:09:03.760
<v Speaker 1>there cigarette I could totally see that. Sure, that might

0:09:03.800 --> 0:09:05.880
<v Speaker 1>be sexist though, so let's just say it could have

0:09:05.920 --> 0:09:12.960
<v Speaker 1>been a flapper or a boy toy. Okay. Either way, though,

0:09:13.400 --> 0:09:17.600
<v Speaker 1>that thing caught on fire started sweeping through those tunnels. Um,

0:09:17.600 --> 0:09:20.280
<v Speaker 1>we're talking a hundred to three hundred feet down below.

0:09:20.320 --> 0:09:23.960
<v Speaker 1>The earth is still on fire. You can still see

0:09:24.000 --> 0:09:28.400
<v Speaker 1>it today. There's some cool little short version YouTube documentaries

0:09:29.240 --> 0:09:32.160
<v Speaker 1>where news crews have gone out and stuff about Centralia,

0:09:32.840 --> 0:09:36.640
<v Speaker 1>and on rainy days, you just you stand there, especially

0:09:36.640 --> 0:09:38.600
<v Speaker 1>on rainy days, and you just see that steam and

0:09:38.640 --> 0:09:42.880
<v Speaker 1>smoke coming out from the earth itself. Um, which is

0:09:42.920 --> 0:09:45.280
<v Speaker 1>why one reason why it gave rise to the video

0:09:45.280 --> 0:09:47.760
<v Speaker 1>game and then later on the movie Silent Hill. It's

0:09:47.800 --> 0:09:51.080
<v Speaker 1>just this creepy abandoned town. Although the astounding thing is

0:09:51.080 --> 0:09:53.040
<v Speaker 1>that it's not fully abandoned, like you said, there are

0:09:53.080 --> 0:09:56.200
<v Speaker 1>some people. They're still. I think there's ten people that

0:09:56.280 --> 0:09:58.720
<v Speaker 1>live there still, and they live there because they basically

0:09:58.760 --> 0:10:02.120
<v Speaker 1>said I'm not moving. And so the government of Pennsylvania

0:10:02.160 --> 0:10:06.360
<v Speaker 1>finally said, fine, you you guys, you lifelong residents of

0:10:06.480 --> 0:10:10.199
<v Speaker 1>original residents of Centralia, you can stay here until you

0:10:11.920 --> 0:10:17.160
<v Speaker 1>and what you say in chill, I said, Centralia, Centralia again.

0:10:17.800 --> 0:10:19.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't care. I don't care anymore. I'm sorry, I'm

0:10:19.920 --> 0:10:23.360
<v Speaker 1>sorry people of c Town. I'm mispronouncing your name. I'm

0:10:23.360 --> 0:10:26.720
<v Speaker 1>offending ten people right now. Well, the government tried to

0:10:26.760 --> 0:10:29.000
<v Speaker 1>get them out of there. Um, they took away their

0:10:29.080 --> 0:10:32.120
<v Speaker 1>zip code in two thousand two. They were like, sorry,

0:10:32.440 --> 0:10:34.800
<v Speaker 1>no zip code. Uh. I don't know if they were

0:10:34.840 --> 0:10:36.520
<v Speaker 1>like we need that for somewhere else or we're just

0:10:36.559 --> 0:10:42.760
<v Speaker 1>retiring it. It's a big burn, no pun intended. They

0:10:43.600 --> 0:10:46.240
<v Speaker 1>took away Route sixty one or part of it. At

0:10:46.280 --> 0:10:49.760
<v Speaker 1>least it ran through there, and some people say it's

0:10:49.760 --> 0:10:51.920
<v Speaker 1>closed for other other people say like it could reopen

0:10:51.920 --> 0:10:54.400
<v Speaker 1>again one day. I don't think it will. Know who

0:10:54.400 --> 0:10:57.120
<v Speaker 1>says it could reopen one day, that's ridiculous. And one

0:10:57.120 --> 0:10:59.240
<v Speaker 1>of those documentaries and like, you know, the idea was

0:10:59.280 --> 0:11:01.559
<v Speaker 1>if this and gets under control, they could rebuild the

0:11:01.600 --> 0:11:05.280
<v Speaker 1>road and no Centralie one reason why they decided to

0:11:05.320 --> 0:11:07.360
<v Speaker 1>move everybody out of there, and it was done with

0:11:07.800 --> 0:11:15.040
<v Speaker 1>taxpayer funded basically like moving fund everyone has given a pope. Well,

0:11:15.320 --> 0:11:17.480
<v Speaker 1>the reason why they started moving everybody think in the

0:11:17.520 --> 0:11:19.680
<v Speaker 1>early eighties some kid was playing in one of the

0:11:19.720 --> 0:11:23.199
<v Speaker 1>streets and the street just collapsed under him and he

0:11:23.280 --> 0:11:27.480
<v Speaker 1>was hanging by his fingers above this like burning pit

0:11:27.600 --> 0:11:29.720
<v Speaker 1>that he was about to drop into, and they're like, okay,

0:11:29.760 --> 0:11:31.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't think Centralie is safe to live in. That

0:11:32.040 --> 0:11:35.000
<v Speaker 1>was forty years ago, so the town has done nothing

0:11:35.000 --> 0:11:38.120
<v Speaker 1>but get more unstable since then, so that at the

0:11:38.200 --> 0:11:40.920
<v Speaker 1>very least that highway is not opening back up. They've

0:11:40.960 --> 0:11:45.079
<v Speaker 1>also demolished buildings there too. You know what actually happened

0:11:45.080 --> 0:11:51.320
<v Speaker 1>to that kid? What is he went to investigate some smoke, uh,

0:11:51.360 --> 0:11:54.560
<v Speaker 1>and the thing exploded and shot him fifty ft up

0:11:54.559 --> 0:11:56.720
<v Speaker 1>into the air. I think it was a different kid,

0:11:57.600 --> 0:12:00.800
<v Speaker 1>was it? I don't know? And like the idea that

0:12:00.840 --> 0:12:04.560
<v Speaker 1>I got something wrong, man, And it just so happened

0:12:04.559 --> 0:12:06.280
<v Speaker 1>to be on the same day that a bunch of

0:12:06.280 --> 0:12:09.680
<v Speaker 1>news crews and local politicians were there, and that was

0:12:09.760 --> 0:12:12.760
<v Speaker 1>not a good look at all. The kid lived by

0:12:12.760 --> 0:12:17.559
<v Speaker 1>the way, Well, the kid lived in my version too. Yeah,

0:12:17.679 --> 0:12:20.959
<v Speaker 1>that's good. They've tried a bunch of things over the

0:12:21.040 --> 0:12:25.280
<v Speaker 1>years to extinguish it. They put vent pipes in in

0:12:25.320 --> 0:12:28.439
<v Speaker 1>the eighties, and the idea there was not to put

0:12:28.480 --> 0:12:32.320
<v Speaker 1>out the fire, but to direct these noxious gases because

0:12:32.360 --> 0:12:34.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, there's all kinds of nasty stuff being put

0:12:35.000 --> 0:12:38.040
<v Speaker 1>into the air, to vent those at least away from

0:12:38.040 --> 0:12:42.440
<v Speaker 1>the town. And some people said that's not working, and

0:12:42.440 --> 0:12:45.520
<v Speaker 1>in fact it's feeding the fire with oxygen. So they

0:12:45.520 --> 0:12:52.120
<v Speaker 1>sealed them up a right, So where does that leave us? Chuck. Well,

0:12:52.160 --> 0:12:56.760
<v Speaker 1>they've also tried to put it out altogether. They dug

0:12:56.840 --> 0:12:59.800
<v Speaker 1>it's sort of like a firebreak. They dug a trent

0:13:00.120 --> 0:13:02.880
<v Speaker 1>down to try and reach that seam in front of

0:13:02.880 --> 0:13:05.720
<v Speaker 1>the fire, but the fire went so fast they didn't

0:13:05.720 --> 0:13:08.400
<v Speaker 1>go far enough ahead. It beat them to where they

0:13:08.400 --> 0:13:13.720
<v Speaker 1>were digging down and they just went nuts. Right, But

0:13:13.800 --> 0:13:16.920
<v Speaker 1>apparently that's like, um, that's kind of par for the course.

0:13:17.000 --> 0:13:20.200
<v Speaker 1>Like that. You they're just really tough to put out.

0:13:20.760 --> 0:13:22.800
<v Speaker 1>You can kind of understand how that would be the

0:13:22.840 --> 0:13:26.000
<v Speaker 1>case from from what I've read. You have to stay

0:13:26.000 --> 0:13:29.040
<v Speaker 1>on top of it immediately after you noticed this and

0:13:29.080 --> 0:13:33.520
<v Speaker 1>then continue monitoring it basically indefinitely, because it can just

0:13:33.600 --> 0:13:36.560
<v Speaker 1>keep flaring up. And in fact, there's a there's something

0:13:36.600 --> 0:13:41.280
<v Speaker 1>called burning mountain Mount Wingin or Winging in New South Wales,

0:13:41.360 --> 0:13:44.200
<v Speaker 1>Australia that they think has been burning for six thousand

0:13:44.280 --> 0:13:51.280
<v Speaker 1>years now. Really yeah, really, man, Well that's scary stuff.

0:13:51.480 --> 0:13:53.280
<v Speaker 1>I think so too. But that was a good one,

0:13:53.320 --> 0:13:56.000
<v Speaker 1>don't you think I think it was great? Great? Well,

0:13:56.040 --> 0:13:58.959
<v Speaker 1>we hope that you think the same thing too. And

0:13:59.040 --> 0:14:03.280
<v Speaker 1>since we've run out of stuff to talk about about Centralia,

0:14:03.920 --> 0:14:09.199
