        That would explain why you posted this on Showerthoughts of all places.

    I believe I have statimated the people of Iceland accurately.

    Pretty pathetic this year in West Seattle. I heard a feeble burst of fireworks right at the stroke of midnight, then a couple minutes of sporadic booms and that was it. Usually it starts earlier and goes on for a good half hour. And I don’t think it was even raining. Not that I blame people for low morale.

      You joke but Björk is super approachable and friendly. She DJed my friend’s birthday party in Reykjavik one time.

    I dunno, sounds pretty statimated to me.

    Also, Happy New Year! Have fun and be safe.

      Thousands of industries worldwide release thousands of times more chemicals in a day than a firework display ever could. It’s fine. Out of all the sources of pollution, I’d wager fireworks should be near the bottom of our list of concerns.

      Though I wish more safety measures around them were introduced, both in terms of manufacturing and usage.
