"A Roadside Beauty Spot, The Titan Metal Plant, Bellefonte, PA."


Indeed.

Put out be E. Madciff in Hershey, Pennsylvania.

That's Chocolate Town, of course.

About fifteen minutes from my house.

Chocolate Town, I mean. Bellefonte is about an hour north of here.

If you drive like a lunatic, I mean. And who doesn't?

Talk about sanitizing the ugly truth.

The only thing missing is a swan.

Floating magisterially over the water filled with heavy metals and radioactive isotopes.

Romanticize the oncogenicity away.
