a: temperature inversion ~
b: lit cigarette in a bowl
What:
"Meteorologist Joe DeNardo said that temperature inversion is like putting a lit cigarette in a bowl and then placing a blanket on top of that; the smoke continually fills up the bowl and has no way of escaping. Temperature inversions were not unusual for Donora, but this one was different because it lasted for five days."

a: bad feelings ~
b: the La Brea Tar Bit
What:
The tar in these pits hovers near the surface, but never really flow. They just sit there stagnant, mixed with bones and water and dirt. This is how my feeling be. They just sit there, not moving or flowing or burning or anything. They are just stuck. How to free them and make them more liquid, I don't know.
