really smoky in BA

So I don't write this complaining, just sharing what's going on here in BA. It's ridiculously smoky. Visibility is limited to less than 1/2 a city block. Your eyes constantly water, your nose and throat burns, and there is an ongoing headache from smoke inhalation. But you can't get away from it. It's all over BA. The smoke creeps into houses, it's in our school, when you blow your nose you taste smoke in your nostrils. I don't think this can be healthy for anyone, even regular smokers who might be more accustomed to smoke.

Some farmers wanted to clear some more land, and the fires got out of control and are still raging out of control. The wind isn't blowing it away, but rather helping the smoke cover the city. There have been more deaths than normal on the provinces highways and freeways due to reduced visibility. This is on the heels of the recent farmer's strike, which won't help either side in their push and shove grudge match. The government is pointing fingers and calling all farmers in Argentina greedy extortionists. It doesn't seem to be a resolving, uniting type of talk/negotiation style. I think things are going to get worse from here. Hopefully not though.
