Again, some angry words and music.
Last year I saw a documentary about asbestos. I didn't know that this murderous stuff is still mined, processed and used in many parts of the world. And that it still costs thousands of people their lives. Once again, profit is above everything, even, unfortunately as so often, above life.
And unfortunately, this has not exactly improved my opinion of our species. Sad, but true.
I would have preferred to make a happy song. Sorry ...

:o:o Awesome Franky,amigo :W:W The mortality rate due to asbestos is unfortunate and true, by the way the roof of the room where I have my small music studio is made of asbestos conglomerate plates, here it is known as uralite, at the moment it is preserved in good condition, but If it starts to degrade and break down into dust particles, it would be a serious problem.

Thank you very much Xavi amigo.
Yes, that's right. As long as you don't touch it and it stays whole, it's still relatively safe. If you tear it off or it releases fibers, it becomes dangerous. +0

Ein weiterer Protestsong von Dir zu einem weiteren schrecklichen Thema. In meinen Ohren ist dieser Track komplet. Du deckst das Stereospektrum aber auch die Tonagen voll ab. Bei meinem derzeitigen Ideenmangel fällt mir leider nichts ein, was ich beifügen könnte. :W:W:)

Ich wäre überglücklich wenn ich eines Tages nichts mehr zu protestieren hätte. Setz Dich nicht unter Druck René. Das kommt von ganz alleine zurück.

You say what you've got to say with compassion for all, except those who of course just seek profit.

Thank you very much Wade. I think I can't help but constantly put my finger in the wound somewhere. I'm not big on tearjerkers.

Cool track and serious subject!!!!
Asbestos was banned in the USA in 1978, but is still in many old buildings and houses. Very expensive process to have removed. Growing up the top half of my parents house was covered in a type of asbestos panel. My Dad used to make me wire brush them every few years and paint them. People didn't know. I am probably going to die from it:(:o:| +1

Yes, it is unfortunately true and that does make it so sad!!!! I have studied lots of history since I retired, especially my country, the USA and that with the very recent threats to USA democracy I know I took for granted, I realize the history of mankind has always been to conquer to enrich their wealth and gain "POWER"!!! There have been pockets of time, especially in my lifetime, that gave me lots of hope that humanity has decided to be humane... I was so wrong as I see in my own country that all that matters is profit and power!! But.... I know I am lucky with your friendship as you make music to depict your feelings and that is always Good because besides being so Creative, it does keep the focus on our shortcomings.

Thank you very much Dan.
Your words are unfortunately also as true as the realization is important. Unfortunately, we seem to be right.
Although it, at least in small also approaches sees something to change for the better. However, I think that is far too little to bring the necessary big steps actually in motion.
Those who could really get something going positively are not interested in changing anything. Because they live very well with it, as it is. It doesn't matter whether it's a politician or a business boss. Sad but true.
But it seems all the more important to me to constantly point to grievances. Although I know that "those up there" do not hear and even if, it would not interest them. But I feel better with it. +1

I think it was a really big business in Europe, Australia in the USA….
I really didn’t know that some wikiloopers had worked in this business, it’s very interesting for me. I’m glad that you had nothing to do with that fiber stuff. Very dangerous. Thank you very much for listening dear Dorothy :) <3 +0
