My son and I read almost all posts and the ones about coal v/s wood Brought back a whole lot of memories .Being low on the poverty scale( there was no such distinction made)in the year of 1942-43.There was a shanty town down along the R.R.tracks where the siding housed coal cars. When the train engineer brought new full cars of coal, he use to slam the brakes and rattle off coal from the tops of the cars ,so the shanty town folks could come up along side the tracks and pick up the much needed coal to keep the folks warm and fuel to cook a meal on. Old men, Women /children ,all along the shanty town R.R. tracks was kept alive by the engineers christian act. Now folks are still sleeping in cardboard boxes, children going hungry, and no work available for those who truly want to work. Looks like we come full circle back to shanty towns with what ever material can keep em warm. God Bless em. Dam good thing I"m not a wealthy man, cause I sure as heck wouldn"t be wealthy very long. Looks like the subject Coal Vs/wood is still alive HUH? LOU
