Well, it was more than two weeks of smog every two years. Evidently
local Indians referred to the basin as "the Great Smoky Valley" long
before whites got to this area.

Also I have to mention that the air out here has
gotten a whole lot cleaner in the last 30 years

In the humble view of this East Coaster, there is much to be said for
burning the whole LA area (or at least Orange County) every two years.
Allowing that doing so could induce a mean smog during a temperature
inversion, two weeks of smog every two years strikes me as far preferable to
more than 50 weeks of smog every year.
