"Starting next fall it will be illegal to install wood-burning heaters and stoves in new homes in at least one major American city: San Francisco.
Even wood stoves certified as low emission by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) will be banned.
“We are serious about reducing the health risks associated with our residents’ exposure to wood smoke,” ..."www.offthegridnews.com/current-events/a-ban-on-heating-your-home-with-wood-its-happening/Someday I will be a wood burning, gun owning, poo fertilizing, tax evading criminal/domestic terrorist. Woohoo...let the good times roll.

What is it with San Francisco? They fret about some of their citizens smelling wood smoke, but turn murderers loose among them without a care. Boy, talk about screwed up priorities!

I been sayin for years, we should slice off that state and float it out into the Pacific to live out its days away from sane people. I wouldn't miss the movie industry, wine country, or anything else they have along with the cuckoo's nest.
Of course, there are probably at least a dozen or so good people there. We'd give them a shot to move when we evac the mil bases first.

www.nytimes.com/interactive/2014/08/13/upshot/where-people-in-each-state-were-born.htmlI can tell you from personal experience, while I have never smelled wood smoke in San Francisco, it's hard to walk a block without having eye watering levels of pot wafting by. I want everyone to know that I'm Californian, born and bred. For generations. And, while its politics seem very weird, a tremendous level of the population, especially around San Francisco come from elsewhere. Of course, as people move in, native born tend to move on. New people tend to want to change stuff. I blame the people from Oklahoma and Arkansas. It's all their fault. But what goes around comes around. The states that sent people to California are now having newbies coming themselves. Ha Ha.

While N.C. has very different laws in comparison, I sure do feel ya on the imported people who generally come in and commence to promoting change. It has really started to show here. Teeny little bits that seemed harmless to most have added up to some big changes that now have multi generation residents going "huh?" |

I do find it amazing that so many people move to get away from what they created and then immediately start recreating it. It's like they don't make the connection between their own actions and what they don't like. They want the things they like but without the things they don't like but don't seem to notice that they are two sides of the same coin.
My closest neighboring house is a great big three story monster with panoramic view, stables, riding ring, carriage house with rental, etc. So it gets sold every few years to a person from the big city with ideas about country living. Who eventually finds the country part exhausting and sells to the next one.
At least they all come with a pot of cash and maintain the house.
I am hypersensative to people trash talking California. It's like your family- it may have some serious mental cases but they're your family. And people never talk about the good things about it. Or at least what they say they want that we already have- like term limits.
