It rained in the South Bay early Thursday morning, about 2am, 26 June 20014. We Californians are in our third year of drought. But it never ever rains in the SFBayArea South Bay in late June!! (American media says this is not news.)

So there i was, late at night, driving from SJ to Bgame, about 2am thursday morning,,, and it is ,,, raining !!
"ABC news."
It is raining in the South Bay!
Yeah, so what.
"CBS news."
It is Raining in the South Bay!
Yeah, yeah.

So the public wants happy faces and infotainment, eh?

This has been the prolonged dirtiest air seasons, Autumn Winter Spring 2013-2014, in the 50 years I have lived in the SFBayArea.

The college degreed "tv weathermen" in their expensive suits and expensive salarymen jobs can bloviate about "the daily high temps".

Where oh where are the Outstanding teaching Weathermen of old, the Old Prof of L.A. and the Fast Talker of SFBayArea who cared so much to professionally teach the general public about something so common and yet so vitally important as "the weather".

Now there are lots of liars and historical whitewashers to bury any meaning from mear numbers and temperatures, like the not that long ago Autumn 3 days in a row in SF of 100F and one day of 104F! They have hid and probably destroyed the photos of the Golden Gate Bridge dramatically sagging under the weight of just 100,000s of 50th Birthday celebrants on that lovely Spring May 1987 day, without cars. Mayor Feinstein had quick left the small party she had called to the bridge.
And the professional news and amateur videos of the October 1989, 7.1R, Santa Cruz-centered, 45second earthquake.

Just ask someone or YouTube and see if they deny "104F in SF".

How dirty , and dangerous to all our healths, have these prolonged 3 seasons of dirty air been?

Many "officials" and "professionals" and politicians obviously don't want us to know.

Your Acura(Honda) dealer, like mine in SillyCons Valley, may not tell you how often to service your A/C. But my independent mechanic recommends "Every 2 years to mainly protect your hard working compressor that needs an internal oil flush by the $5000 automatic evacuate-lube-refill machine."

Acura dealer service writer said "it's a 2 hour job" too, but i watched my independent mechanic do it in under an hour.  So how does the auto industry get to publish and refer to such Wrong extended service job hours? Oh, yeah, the corrupted state Ca. legislature.

Democrats and Republicans, the slightly lesser of 2 evil choices game.  Aren't we lucky in Ca.?

So i asked the independent mechanic, "Is it unreasonable for any and all bus passengers to expect comfortable interior temps,under 70F, when it is 110F and 120F in the Shade!, or 130F outside."  Yes,near impossible.
Not likely.

Who is gonna tell Costco their chocolate cookies are not browned, but doughy and under_cooked??

oops
