8. I live in Seattle where the AQI (Air Quality Index) is currently 188.

A score of 151 to 200 says "everyone may begin to experience health effects; members of sensitive groups may experience more serious health effects." For comparison, today Beijing's AQI is 52.

Just last week, at age 62, I was diagnosed with adult onset asthma so I've been forced to hack up money for an inhaler, a nebulizer and Albuterol. This is the first time in my life I've ever had pulmonary problems.

I have much more to say about this, but I can barely breath due to the smoke blanketing the Puget Sound and now the syphilitic, moron-in-chief currently squatting in the Oval Office is gutting the Clean Air Act so It can line It's pockets and stick-it to It's political enemies.

If I say any more I'm going to get banned for threatening and inappropriate language.
