Colors weren't that good this year either--also like DC. Good colors want a moderately warm and wet summer, followed by a sharp turn to cold. This year we got drought, which didn't break until the equinox, and then warm and wet weather that has cooled only gradually.
Plutonium--This is the difference between nostalgia and reality: We love those monsters, but there is no way we would want them chugging through our lives right now . . . The Fates are kind.
I understand nostalgia, but the photo bothered me so much that I had my browser block it :-(
